History

Prior to December 16, 2007, New Brunswick relied on approximately 52 private, public and volunteer ambulance operators to provide emergency medical care. The level of medical care, staff qualifications and type and condition of ambulances and supplies varied throughout the province.

Following the lead of Nova Scotia in 1994 and Prince Edward Island in 2005, the Government of New Brunswick created ANB on June 6, 2007 and began provincial operations on December 16, 2007. A 10-year performance-based operating contract was awarded to New Brunswick EMS Inc. which is a subsidiary of Medavie EMS. Medavie EMS also operates ambulance services in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
