A piece of history...
Heavy Rescue:
Well it might be working well in some areas but out here things aren't so smooth. It seems that when a road roller fell over the other day on top of a person the first and only response was of the SES who were about 20 km's away.
This might not seem strange until you realise that there was one CFS rescue brigade about 2 mins away, another about 5 minutes away and a third about 10 minutes away. None of those resourcs were responded until some 20 minutes after the initial SES response, unfortunately by the time we arrived the patient was DOA - and no SES on scene yet.
One really has to ask the question why the closest rescue (resource isn't being responded to rescue incidents ? Have the SES changed the MFS database and removed CFS from some rescue calls or was this simply a one of stuff up. :-(
PF_:
Was this the incident at Lewiston?
rescue5271:
Did you guys follow up why it took so long for you to be paged with the region and socc??????if not why not.........
Heavy Rescue:
I believe it is being followed up. Hopefully the Workplace services investigation will also reveal the deficiency.
