The Kenora District Services Board is beefing up staff at the new land ambulence base in Kenora.
The DSAB is doing away with an on-call paramedic crew.
Director of EMS Andrew Tickner says instead, the board has approved 4 new positions to create a second on-site overnight crew.
In addition to the positions in Kenora the KDSB is adding 1 new overnight position in Sioux Lookout.
