Bellers101 Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 Another example of why there should be two ambulances at every meeting. A policy employed by Redcar this season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HGould Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 33 minutes ago, ch958 said: big delay, 45/60 minutes according to updates Might take that long to get to hospital and back BUT if there is a 4 hour delay to get in to A+E the Ambulance can't just leave the patient in the Car Park on a trolley. I have known riders being ferried in cars but any sort of head or breathing injury or bad break the paramedics won't allow it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You hear of patients waiting for hours at some hospitals with ambulances queued up outside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many riders have made their own way to hospitals during a meeting but with relatively minor or non life threatening injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not moved on far enough. If this meeting is abandoned then that will be two in the opening weeks of the Championship season. (Birmingham the other). The BSPL need to sort something out regarding sufficient medical cover. These situations can't be allowed to persist. A few tracks have two ambulances which decreases the chances of a lengthy delay dramatically. Should be mandatory in what is supposed to be a professional sport. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellers101 Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 Racing restarted after 90 min or so delay. Let's hope there are no more delays for the people who are there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
