UCP Announce Program To Free Up EMS | Wednesday, December 21, 2022 | Micah Quinn | Bridge City News
The Alberta government announced a new program to help free up ambulances and paramedics to more quickly respond to emergency situations. Alberta Health Services will now arrange for alternative transportation for non-medical patients to make sure that EMS can attend more urgent matters. These new modes of transportation would be in the form of transport vans.
Health Minister Jason Copping reiterated the importance of helping to alleviate the stress off first responders with this new initiative.
Officials from AHS estimate that 15 per cent of transports will be diverted from emergency medical services.
The Alberta NDP say they are not impressed with the UCP’s solution to the new initiative. Health Critic David Shepherd says the province’s response to the EMS crisis is grossly inadequate and does not address the staffing shortage throughout Alberta’s health system.
