Notes:
*PRU = Paramedic Response Unit
*The day, night and back shifts will cover a variety of shift patterns.

The Scottish Ambulance Service have confirmed that the accident and emergency ambulances operating from Clydebank Ambulance Station are rostered to be double-crewed by a paramedic and a technician, and that the PRU is rostered to be crewed by a paramedic.
