Trust response to National
Audit Office report on NHS Ambulance Services

Please attribute to a South East Coast Ambulance Service
spokesperson:

“SECAmb broadly welcomes the focus this report brings on the
challenges facing the ambulance service. We are pleased that it
highlights a number of issues including rising demand not being
matching by increases in funding, handover delays at A&Es and
that response times targets should not be the only measure of
ambulance service performance. We will continue to work closely
with our partners in the NHS and beyond to make improvements to the
service we provide wherever possible.”
