Summary

The Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust data covers data pertaining to more than 250,000 emergency calls a year, over 50,000 urgent calls and transport over 1.3 million non-emergency patients to over 200 treatment centres throughout England and Wales.

Documentation

The ambulance services statistics show monthly data for Wales on the number of calls and the time taken to respond to an incident. Information is available by Local Health Board (LHB) and for Wales. The latest and past versions of the release are available on the ambulance services page. Since April 2014, Local Health Boards have been responsible for providing emergency ambulance services (999 calls) for their local residents; the Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust (WAST) is commissioned to deliver emergency ambulance services on their behalf.

There are two categories of ambulance service: Emergency Medical Services (EMS) - the Emergency Medical Service deals with emergency and urgent cases, and is accessed by dialling 999; and Patient Care Services (PCS) – provides transport for patients to a variety of planned hospital appointments and outpatient clinics.
