Conveyance of patients under two.
Dear Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust,
What is the rationale for the policy regarding conveyance of all under 2 patients to the emergency department when calls come from the 999 system.
Please provide all staff notices and articles in the operational or staff update reminding staff that all patients under 2 where 999 is called should be transported to hospital.
Provide the most up to date conveyance policy including the NASMeD best practice statement on the conveyance of children.
Yours faithfully,
John Anthony
Thank you for your contacting the Legal Services Department at Yorkshire
Ambulance Service NHS Trust.
The department now works remotely away from ambulance headquarters and the
pre-existing telephony is no longer in place. As such, the department
works exclusively by e-mail and your e-mail shall be actioned in the
normal way.
Additionally, if you usually send post into the department, please be
aware that there may be a delay in this post reaching the relevant staff
so if you are in a position to e-mail any documentation instead of via
post, it would be greatly appreciated.
Please ensure all contact is made via this e-mail inbox – the inbox will
be monitored daily between the hours of 0800hrs and 1600hrs Monday to
Friday excluding bank holidays.
Thank you.
