Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Ambulance Services, Recruitment and Retention of Personnel, and Response Times: Discussion

Mr. Robert Morton:

That is conceivably possible. Solid work has been done by our colleagues in the UK and they have found there is a correlation between harm and a delayed response. They carried out solid, evidence-based work on that and found a link between the two. How long a delay it takes to cause harm is difficult to know, but Professor O'Donnell might wish to comment on that.
