A statement in response to a Langley Advance Times query by BC Emergency Health Services (BCEHS) said the ambulance did not have any patients on board at the time.
BCEHS said another ambulance with primary care paramedics and two paramedic supervisors was called to the scene, and the two paramedics who were in the first ambulance at the time of the collision received emergency medical treatment, Both were transported to hospital in stable condition with injuries that “are not believed to be serious.”
The occupants of the other vehicle received care and assessment at the scene and did not require hospital transport, BCHES said.
It wasn’t clear if the ambulance lights and siren were on at the time.
Paramedic public information officer Brian Twaites said an investigation was underway.
“As with any motor vehicle incident involving one of our ambulances, we have initiated a review of the circumstances of this incident and we will ensure that the paramedics involved in this incident are receiving the support they need as they recover,” Twaites said. We take the safety of paramedics, patients and members of the public very seriously.”
A photo posted to the Skilled Truckers Canada 2025 Facebook page showed the ambulance suffered front end damage and debris was scattered at the site of the crash.
Deputy Township of Langley fire chief Russ Jenkins told the Langley Advance Times two fire department vehicles responded to the call.
The injuries suffered by the paramedics appeared to be minor, he said.
In addition to the damage suffered by the vehicles involved, a traffic light on a light pole was hit, Jenkins reported.
“Once the patients were treated and the light standard was called in, our crews cleared,” Jenkins said.
