Medical attention in dangerous situations.

The request was partially successful.

Dear South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust,

The hours of delay in providing attention to victims in poorly assessed major incidents is scary.

What changes have you made in the light of the information flowing from the official reviews?

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/ho...

I fear delays like that will cost more lives in the future.

Thank you

Yours faithfully,

Mr Ian

Dear Freedom of Information,
I have no idea what reports you may or may not have done. Hence my request.

My question is what current secamb procedures are regarding assisting injured people in dangerous situations, having taken account of what happened in Borough Market and the Manchester bombing.

If Im unlucky enough to be injured in something, I want to know youve pre planned your response so I wont be waiting 3-4 hours for help.

Ian James

Yours sincerely,

Mr Ian
