It is part of an international organisation that consists of eight Priories that form the Order of St John. The organisation is sometimes incorrectly referred to "St John's Ambulance" or "St Johns Ambulance" instead of "St John Ambulance". History of St John AmbulanceIn the Nineteenth Century a group of citizens revived the Order of St John in England, drawing their inspiration from the example of the Knights of St John who, in medieval times, offered care and shelter for pilgrims and crusaders. St John Ambulance was subsequently formed to put its humanitarian ideals into practice in the new industrial society, promoting the cause of first aid for the sick and wounded through volunteer effort - a novel concept at the time and a much-needed one. The movement spread to Australia in 1883 and has since developed into the organisation that we know today. The work of the Order of St John is carried out in many countries around the world. St John is a Royal Order of Chivalry with the Queen as its Sovereign Head. Activity StreamsSt John NSW has several areas of focus: Event Health ServicesSt John provides volunteer First Aiders, First Responders, Advanced Responders and Health Care Professionals to provide medical services at small community events from school fates and sports days, corporate events and large public events such as ANZAC day services and New Year's Eve celebrations.[1] Previously known as First Aid Services (FAS), and Operations Branch (OB).

St John does not train paramedics or offer diplomas in paramedical science programs in NSW. Education and AwarenessAs advocates for first aid, St John NSW volunteer trainers deliver first aid skills in the community.[2] St John NSW supports and funds a "First Aid in Schools" program aimed and engaging primary school aged students in first aid.[3] St John continues to use its influence to promote early education in schools across Australia.[4] Examples of the program success is becoming more visible in the media:
Recognition programs are in place to award the public for use of first aid and CPR skills in the community. "Save a Life Award was an important opportunity to publicly acknowledge the admirable actions of recipients, and thank them on behalf of patients, their families and the local community."[9] St John produce and distribute publications aimed at educating the general public including posters and fact sheets. The "St John Australian First Aid Manual" is widely distributed and is edited by a clinical board yearly to align with the most current evidence available. St John Ambulance Australia has created and operates an Automated External Defibrillators (AED) register. The register aims to help locate this essential equipment often required in cardiac arrest.
