(asked on 17th May 2023) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the reply by Lord Markham on 11 May (HL Deb col 1935), whether they intend to recruit more paramedics to support increased capacity for ambulances.
This question was answered on 26th May 2023
Additional ambulance service capacity will largely be delivered through more crew hours on the road and through an increase in clinical capacity in control rooms. The number of National Health Service ambulance staff and support staff has increased by over 40% since 2010.
