You raised concerns about:

  • ambulance response times particularly the waiting times for ambulances for non-life threatening situations
  • journey times to hospital
  • advice given on care during the wait for an ambulance

We wrote to Yvonne Ormston, Chief Executive of North East Ambulance Service (NEAS), and asked her to respond to the concerns you raised.
