The coroner’s concerns
Emirates Airline : The adequacy of the training of Emirates staff in respect of the recognition of possible cardiac arrest and signs thereof including agonal breathing and the administration of appropriate first aid/prompt CPR The adequacy and effectiveness of the procedures followed by Emirates staff in the event that the Tempus system is unable to provide assistance which was the case here. Department of Health I heard evidence that NWAS failed to meet target times which are nationally set by the Department of Health and that although NWAS was given more financial resources in November 2015 (for provision of more ambulances and recruitment of an additional 400 staff) I was also informed since April 2017 none of the nationally set targets have been met by any ambulance trust in England and Wales namely, a Red 1 response within 8 minutes 75% of the time, Red 2 within 19 minutes 95% of the time, I was also informed that there has been a massive increase of calls to 999 with consequent impact on response times and delays in ambulance turnaround at hospitals. 2 6 Consequent on the above and in this specific case there was only one paramedic on duty at any one time for the whole of Manchester Airport. Such paramedic being required to carry out Basic Life Support alone and unable to start Advanced Life Support.
