Acute Ambulance and Medical Services (AAMS), a UK ambulance service based in Milton Keynes, entered administration on March 27 after two decades of operation. Administrators Jason Mark Elliott and Craig Johns of Cowgills Limited were appointed, according to a notice in The Gazette.
However, the company has been bought out of administration by SparkMedical, ensuring no job losses. AAMS stated: 'There are no job losses, and there are no uncertainties ahead. Acute Ambulance and Medical Services are very proud to announce we are now part of the SparkMedical UK group and as such have now a strengthened resource and financial stability to support the team, clients and service users going forward.'
The company praised its staff, saying: 'The staff have been utterly outstanding during this period of transition and are excited for the future.' It reassured clients and service users that they are 'all here to stay and are looking forward to providing the level of service of care that we have delivered over the last 20 years for at least the next 20 years and further.'
AAMS operates a fleet including frontline ambulances, high dependency ambulances, patient transport service ambulances, and wheelchair vehicles. It works with both the NHS and private sectors, providing services such as GP urgent referrals, repatriation, inter-hospital transfers, and medical cover for events.
