WHEN A LONDON AMBULANCE RESPONDED RECENTLY to a shortness-of-breath call in the suburb of Hackbridge, they positioned the ambulance in front of the closed gates of a school next to the scene.
While they were spending approx. 20 minutes working on their patient before transporting him, the headmistress of the school approached the ambulance driver and asked him to move the ambulance. The problem, you see, was that the gates are a designated fire exit.
The driver wisely refused to move it and they went about their life-saving business. Now the school is embarassed about the whole deal. The London Ambulance Service spokesman said: “In the interests of patient care, the crew parked the ambulance in the safest available location to tend to the man as quickly as possible.”
The Guardian has the STORY.
