Save 000 for Saving Lives

A significant number of Triple Zero (000) calls requesting an ambulance response are not real emergencies and do not require immediate medical assistance. There are several alternatives to calling an ambulance. Please save 000 for saving lives and only call an ambulance if it's a medical emergency.
