Speed. Care. Trust. Chennai’s 24/7 Emergency Ambulance Service
📞 Call Ambulance Now🚑 Ambulance Services Save Lives — A National Effort
Across India, Ambulance Services have become a critical pillar of emergency medical care. As per the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (March 11, 2025), over 22,000 Government Ambulances operate under the National Health Mission — including 15,283 Basic Life Support (BLS) units and 3,044 Advanced Life Support (ALS) vehicles. These ambulances respond to millions of emergencies annually, saving lives in both urban and rural regions.
But this life-saving mission is not carried by the Government alone. Thousands of Private Ambulance Operators across India — including city-based services, hospital fleets, and independent providers — play an equally vital role. While their contributions may not be centrally documented, the impact is undeniable. From accident response to inter-hospital transfers, Private Ambulances often match or exceed public service volumes, especially in high-density urban zones.
FORCE AMBULANCE is proud to be part of this national effort — serving Chennai with 24/7 Emergency and Non-Emergency Ambulance Services, including ICU Ambulances, BLS Transport, Freezer Vans, and Funeral Ambulances. We operate with Speed, Care, and Trust, and remain committed to Ethical Service, Public Awareness, and honoring the professionals who make this mission possible.

🚑 Why Ambulance Services Matter — A Public Appeal
Emergencies don’t wait. Accidents, strokes, cardiac arrests, and complications strike without warning—and in those moments, a 24/7 emergency ambulance isn’t just a vehicle. It’s a lifeline. Ambulances are mobile hospitals, equipped with trained paramedics and life-saving tools like ICU units, BLS transport, and Mini ambulances that deliver critical care en route. Behind every siren is a team of heroes—Ambulance Drivers (Hope Drivers), Paramedics, and EMTs—who face trauma, long hours, and emotional strain to keep others alive. During the Covid-19 pandemic, they didn’t ask for applause. They asked for oxygen. From 108 Government Ambulance teams to private operators across Chennai, these professionals became the heartbeat of a city in crisis—entering containment zones, working unpaid, unseen, and unprotected. Inside cramped vans, they wore full PPE kits for hours, suffocating in heat, drenched in sweat, unable to drink water or breathe freely. Every ride was a risk. Every shift, a sacrifice. On the road, they deserve our respect and our cooperation. Under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, ambulances are classified as emergency vehicles and must be given priority at all times. Move left, don’t block intersections, avoid tailgating, and follow sirens as signals of urgency—because every delay can cost a life. FORCE AMBULANCE salutes the courage, endurance, and humanity of every ambulance professional. Your service wasn’t just essential—it was extraordinary. You will never be forgotten.
