PQ 937
937. Deputy Micheál Carrigy asked the Minister for Health if he will review the decision by the National Ambulance Service (NAS) to require advanced paramedic training officers and NAS managers to park emergency response vehicles at ambulance bases instead of taking them home, given that this will end voluntary out-of-hours emergency response by trained personnel, impacting patient care in local communities; if the implications of this policy on emergency response times have been fully assessed; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
