    Peter Parker · Prevention of Future Deaths report

    Report summary

    Peter Parker sustained a laceration to his right wrist from broken glass at home and called an ambulance, but the call disconnected and assistance arrived approximately 9½ hours later, after he had died. The principal concern was that the ambulance response exceeded the expected survival time for the injury, with delays attributed to ambulances waiting to hand over patients at emergency departments.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Delays in responding to Amber 1 emergency calls

    Wider context from the report

    “During the course of the inquest the reason given for the significant delay to respond to the call was ambulances waiting at Emergency Departments to hand over patients, meaning that the ambulances are not therefore responding to calls for assistance. The longest wait at the Emergency Department by an ambulance on the evening in question was 11-12 hours, which is the equivalent of a whole 12 hour shift where that ambulance was not responding to calls. The inquest heard evidence that when the MPDS system was introduced in 2015 it was envisaged that an Amber 1 priority call would be responded to in 20 minutes from the time of the call and that a person with a transected radial artery could expect to survive 30-45 minutes. Given that it was not feasible for Peter to transport himself to hospital, and Peter had not contacted his family for their assistance. I am concerned that the response time in this case was beyond the expected survivability of such an injury. The Amber 1 priority rating was by itself not incorrect but was inappropriate in the context of the time taken to respond to such priorities on the evening in question. I am further concerned that the reason for the delay was due to ambulances waiting to offload patients at hospitals, in accordance with the ambulance’s duty of care, and therefore not responding to emergency calls as is their purpose. 1. There was a significant delay in getting an ambulance to Peter which resulted in him dying from his injuries before assistance arrived. The time for survival of such injuries was 30-45 minutes, however the time taken to respond was in excess of 9 hours. Whilst there is no specific target for Amber 1 calls it was envisaged that when the system was introduced such calls would be responded to in 20 minutes. ”
