Vehicle policies

The request was successful.

Dear East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust,

I would like to humbly make 2 requests for information;

1. What is your policy regarding the road worthiness of a frontline emergency ambulance which has had a failure of its air condition system, ie would that vehicle be sent on a shift as normal or would it be deemed "VOR" additionally if the air condition failed during a shift would the same apply?

2. What is your policy on the loading or unloading of patients using the side step of your frontline emergency ambulances?

Yours faithfully,

Ian Thomson
