SJAB History

In 1996, the Brigade was again re-structured. The District level was removed. Area was renamed as Zone. Divisions in each school were administered as a corps.

Today, the St. John of Singapore continues with its work for suffering humanity and it assists the Republic of Singapore whenever called upon in all emergencies such as epidemics, clinic and hospital duties, the St. John Ambulances also carry the sick and needy whenever requested. Brigade officers and members provided first-aid coverage at National, public and other events.
The Association is currently conducting the following courses in English, Mandarin and Malay for the public:

• Basic First Aid
• Adult First Aid
• Refresher First Aid
• Higher First Aid
• Methods of Instruction
• Home Nursing (Basic)
• Home Nursing (Adult)
• Higher Home Nursing

Today, ambulance and nursing members of the St. John Ambulance Brigade are familiar sights in Singapore. Many people in our Republic have benefitted directly from these First Aid workers who carry out our motto. "For the Service of Mankind" after being trained by the Association and Brigade.
