Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Ambulance Services, Recruitment and Retention of Personnel, and Response Times: Discussion
Mr. Robert Morton:
The alternative model is what we are doing at the moment, which is about trying to respond differently to 999 calls. Patients and staff tell us that many people who dial 999 do not need and do not want a traditional ambulance. They want a different model of healthcare. Broadly speaking, that is happening outside Dublin and probably needs to happen everywhere, including Dublin.
