Information is not available in the format requested.

Information on the average (median) time to treatment for Category A (immediately life-threatening) calls is shown in the attached table. This is the time, in minutes, until arrival of an ambulance-dispatched health professional. These times are collected for the whole area covered by each Ambulance Service, but not for towns or cities within those areas.
