Perth Medical Volunteers

What Perth Medical Volunteers does

Perth Medical Volunteers (operating as Perth Medics Inc.) is a registered charity and non-profit organization founded in 2019 and headquartered in Balcatta, Western Australia. It delivers event medical services — including standby ambulance, health & safety, fire & rescue, and security support — to sporting clubs, schools, charities, and community groups across the greater Perth metropolitan area and Regional Western Australia. The organization has supported 1,600+ events since inception and draws on a network of 160+ to 200+ medical volunteers, paramedics, and nurses, having grown from a founding team of three first aiders.

The business model is primarily fee-for-service, with event organizers requesting custom quotes via phone (1300 875 320), email, or the perthmedics.com website contact form. Pricing is quote-based and varies by event type, size, duration, and medical support requirements. As a registered charity, the organization also accepts donations through an online portal, with all proceeds reinvested into training, equipment, and service development; donations are not tax-deductible. A secondary offering — a Medical Pre-Hospital Development program — provides training and placement hours for university and tertiary institution students, functioning as both a talent pipeline and a mission-aligned service.

Underlying technology is minimal and not publicly disclosed; the operations are labor-intensive, relying on volunteer coordination through direct outreach channels and social media (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn). There is no proprietary software, no app, no public API, and no disclosed AI or automation tooling. The company's moat is primarily its volunteer talent pool, registered charity status, and state-wide distribution across Western Australia, rather than any technology barrier.
