Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children
Update on Health Affairs: Discussion with Minister for Health and HSE
12:40 pm
Ms Laverne McGuinness:
They are not actually ambulances, they are intermediate care vehicles. There will be 25 new intermediate care vehicles that will be able to transport two patients at the same time between hospitals. That will free up and release ambulances, so they will be available to improve response times throughout the country.
