In the clinical operation, nurses, specialist nurses, and nursing assistants work. In addition to ambulances, the ambulance service also operates internal medical management, which is an operational role based at the alarm center.

Ambulance care is an operation that is constantly evolving and changing to maintain accessible ambulance care that meets the needs of patients and the rest of the healthcare system. Therefore, several change initiatives are underway within the operation to create a more accessible and robust ambulance service, for example, through the introduction of assessment vehicles, the establishment of patient transport services, and the adaptation of work methods and training.

The operation has important collaborations in its daily work with, among others, SOS Alarm, emergency departments, hospital wards, primary care, psychiatric care, state and municipal rescue services, police, social services, municipal care and nursing, and ambulance services from other regions.
