Emergency Medical Services, Annual

Data from Jan 2000 to Dec 2023Last updated: 24 Oct 2024, 16:26 SGT

SINGSTAT (Singapore Department of Statistics)

Source: SINGAPORE CIVIL DEFENCE FORCE

Data Last Updated: 25/07/2024

Update Frequency: Annual

Footnotes: With effect from 2016, the data compiled is based on a revised classification of the following categories of calls: 'Emergency', 'Non-Emergency', and 'False Alarm'. 'Non-Emergency' calls are cases where urgent medical assistance by the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) Emergency Medical Services (EMS) is not required, and this includes cases where patients are either uninjured or have no medical complaints. 'False Alarm' calls include incidents where no patients were found at the incident site when the EMS crew arrived. Due to the revised classification, the breakdown of SCDF s EMS statistics from 2016 are not comparable with prior figures.
