Waiting times for ambulances
Dear East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust,
Could you please provide me with information on how long patients making a Category 1 life-threatening calls in North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire had to wait for an ambulance to reach them in August 2021?
Please these by broken down by hour (e.g. less than 1 hour, 1 to 2, 2 to 3, or as close as you can do).
Also, could you tell me what the longest wait for a Category 1 call in this time period and location was?
Yours faithfully,
Jamie Waller
