To try and empathise with the subhuman creatures that lurk in the damp, gloomy basement of HQ, fed on a diet of stale bread and cold coffee, otherwise known as call handlers, dispatchers and comms officers, I have occasionally been known to dip my toe in and say hello.

On one occasion I was invited to listen into some of the calls to try and better understand some of the things our evil overlords must endure, before dispatching us to “the utter crap that doesn’t need an ambulance”

The call went as thus;

“CH: Ambulance service, what’s the address of the emergency?

Caller: Hi, I’m having a lot of difficulty breathing. My chest feels really tight and I feel very faint. I might be about to pass out.

CH: Can you tell me where you are?

Caller: I’m at the payphone on .

CH: OK sir, I’m sending an ambulance to you now. Do you have emphysema or asthma?

Caller: No.

CH: I need you to try and take slow, deep breaths and remain calm. Can I take your name sir?

Caller: Ok

CH: So did the shortness of breath come on suddenly? Have you any idea what caused it?

Caller: Yes, I’m being chased by the police.

CH:

Full credit to the call handler, she kept the guy talking until the police arrived.

I have to say, after spending half a day in there, I can understand why so many inappropriate ambulances are sent, it’s usually not the fault of our control room, it’s usually the fault of the exaggerating caller/lying little twerp that rings us.

They know the little shitbag is lying through his/her teeth but they’re powerless to do anything about it.

Before you go...

We need your help. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories & videos which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services & NHS by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services & NHS which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of you, our readers.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
