Remembering Robert Bland and Phillip Oakley 20 years on

Ambulance Victoria today remembers paramedics Robert Bland and Phillip Oakley, who tragically lost their lives while on-duty 20 years ago.

Rob and Phil were responding to a callout when their ambulance crashed at the Black Spur on 2 January 2004.

They made the ultimate sacrifice in serving our community and the weight of their loss remains heavy today.

Our thoughts are with their families and friends, those who worked alongside them and all emergency service workers who responded to them.
