Funded Activity Summary

Ambulance demand is increasing internationally and has been associated with poorer patient outcomes. Although little is known about the drivers of demand, ambulance services are implementing revised telephone triage models to divert critical resources away from patients with non-urgent complaints. This research aims to evaluate ambulance demand, as well as the safety and effectiveness of revising telephone triage and ambulance dispatch models.
