Member for Nanango, Deb Frecklington, has welcomed recent infrastructure upgrades at the Kilcoy Ambulance Station which will boost security for the Station.
Member for Nanango, Deb Frecklington, said the upgrades included replacing deteriorated timber fences with steel fencing and installing new security and electronic access systems within the station building.
“As part of the boundary fencing upgrade new steel double-gates have been fitted to provide electronic proximity-card access for vehicles,” Mrs Frecklington said.
“Entry to the station building itself is now more secure with card access installed to the medications storeroom and on all external doors.
“There is also a new state-of-the-art security system throughout the building, a CCTV system inside the medical supplies store and new lockable cabinets.
Minister for Housing and Public Works Tim Mander said the security upgrades were testimony to the Queensland Government’s ongoing commitment to deliver better infrastructure and revitalise frontline services across Queensland as promised at the election.
“These upgrades will significantly improve the day-to-day working conditions and safety for crews and a consistent approach is being taken with upgrades across other ambulance stations across Queensland,” Mr Mander said.
