Neville ChaimBerlin,
Also, newsflash, 10 minutes is NOT a long time.
It certainly is in a case of cardiac arrest. I think because of that dispatchers try to walk the caller through starting CPR while waiting for the first responders to arrive.
People outside the city wait over 30 minutes; get over your cuddled NYC ways.
Huh? I live outside of NYC, and have never experienced a wait time longer than 5 minutes.
And, you write about someone leaving their wedding for an emergency call like it’s a bad thing? Waste of forum space.
Hmm. Leaving a wedding, getting into ambulance, driving to a location who knows how far away, all in 10 minutes. That seems pretty impressive now that I think about it.
