How can we improve barriers to early intervention in cardiac arrest? That's what Corvanta's first guest is here to help us unpack.

Ambulance Insights Podcast Episode 1: LIVE NOW

Tony Walker has nearly four decades of experience in ambulance and emergency services, most recently as Chief Executive Officer of Ambulance Victoria.

Right now, the rates of survival to discharge are 50 % lower in rural versus metro areas.

Tony is amazed that Victoria is the only state where Fire services formally and automatically respond to cardiac arrest.

We cover:
- How can we improve equity in cardiac arrest care in rural and urban areas?
- Is it true Tony carries around an AED in his car boot?
- How could a co-response model work?
- Is partnering and collaborating the future of ambulance services?
- What does a cardiac arrest survivor believe is needed to bridge the gap?
