Community First Responder Activations

The request was successful.

Dear Scottish Ambulance Service,

Please could you provide the following information...

1) Number of Activations by Scheme / Callsign for Community First Responders in your region. Please include a description if listed by callsign so it is clear the area the CFR responds in.

2) The percentage of CFR activations where a CFR arrived before a trust mobilised resource, i.e a DCA or RRV.

3) The percentage of CFR activations where a CFR has been directly responsible for meeting the response time target for a call type. i.e a Red1 call where a CFR arrived within 8 minutes but was not backed up by a trust resource within 8 minutes.

4) The number of calls where the CFR was the closest resource to an incident but not activated.

5) The average distance travelled for a CFR attending an incident, listed by county.

Yours faithfully,

Andrew Latham
