Ambulance During Coronavirus Pandemic South Street Perth Perthshire Scotland

Tour Scotland Spring travel video of an Ambulance with paramedics responding to an emergency while driving fast along South Street, during the Coronavirus Pandemic, on visit in Perth, Perthshire. In 1948 the newly formed National Health Service contracted two voluntary organisations, the St Andrew's Ambulance Association and the British Red Cross, to jointly provide a national ambulance service for Scotland. The service was known as the St Andrew's and Red Cross Scottish Ambulance Service. The Red Cross withdrew from the service in 1967; the service was renamed the St Andrew's Scottish Ambulance Service. In 1974 the service was taken over by the NHS, the title being shortened to the Scottish Ambulance Service.
