Why YSK: If you’re injured or ill but it’s not life or limb threatening and you decide to call an ambulance thinking it’ll be faster and you’ll be seen first… WRONG. Ambulance crews very frequently will advise the hospital staff that you “can wait”. Then we’ll plop you into a wheel chair and push you into the waiting room with everyone else.

    And you know what 10 per day is any station doesn’t matter if normal ems or intensive care, surgery’s or whatever and for max 24 days per year. I just was at the hospital with my mother she had a grade 1 burn that was close to 2 and no doctors had open so yeah she didn’t pay a cent and got enough stuff for the weekend to go on Monday to a normal doctor.
