The Retired Ambulance Association of Victoria (TRAAVI) is pleased to support this important research project being conducted through the Department of Paramedicine at Monash University by Peter O’Meara and Ken Curtis.
This study aims to recognise and acknowledge the contribution of the Victorian Ambulance Service Cadet Program of the 1960s and 1970s — a program that played a significant role in shaping ambulance services and paramedic education in Victoria.
We encourage former cadets, or the families of those who were part of the program, to consider participating. This is an opportunity to ensure that the experiences, contributions and legacy of cadets are properly recorded and recognised.
Participation involves completing a short online questionnaire (approximately 15–25 minutes), with the option to contribute additional information, documents or a short personal biography.
TRAAVI recognises the importance of preserving our shared history and acknowledges the efforts of Peter and Ken in undertaking this work.
