"We don't have the staff to man all shifts," ambulance paramedic Linus Vestberg tells the newspaper.
In Sollefteå, where he is stationed, ambulances are left in the garage several times a week.
"I haven't experienced any serious consequences from us being too few, but we're supposed to be 37 and are only 31 at the moment."
The situation was worst in July, according to the Swedish Labor Ministry's survey: 149 cancelled ambulance shifts.
The region has had difficulty recruiting staff and is now training assistant nurses to become ambulance attendants. This has ensured that staffing is moving in the right direction.
