Air Ambulance Services
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department has made an assessment of the potential impact of helipad accessibility on patient outcomes in air ambulance transfers.
Answered by Karin Smyth
No such discussions have been held. Air ambulances form a vital part of the emergency response to patients in critical need. The Department of Health and Social Care continues to work closely with NHS England and the Department for Transport to ensure that there is appropriate helipad accessibility available for air ambulances across the country.
