Board protests Ministry policy on critically ill BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER It wasn't on the meeting agenda, but' mem- bers of the hospital board decided .spon- taneously Monday evening at the April session to_,se d..a-,_iet er to. tl,e. On.tarin Ministry .of Health protesting a policy which allows non- medical civil servants to make decisions about the disposal of critically • ill patients needing transportation by ambulance. The matter came up through a incidental discussion about the new ambulance provided by the province for the Goderich service. It quickly grew heated and bitter though, as. doctors complainei about the problems they encounter when trying to transfer patients long distances in ambulances. The physicians cited cases where patients referred to London hci pitals were held up for long periods of time at AM&G while a central dispatcher in Toronto made the decision about the need for transportation, the urgency of transportation and whether ' or not all the conditions of the patient's transfer can been met according to Ministry guidelines. Elmer Taylor, administrator at AM&G, said the central dispatch system is designed to prevent ambulances from criss-crossing the province inefficiently. He said the object is to co-ordinate_the ambulances in Ontario on long- distance runs, to make certain the bestuse is made of the service for the citizens who pay the bills.
