answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2017 answer text <p>Many police forces have local joint initiatives with health partners to respond to people with mental health issues. For example, approximately 38 police forces in England have access to a Street Triage service – where mental health professionals accompany police officers on patrol and all forces have access to mental health partners who provide advice and support them in dealing with the public. Information on the average number of responses to calls from people with a mental health issue, by the police, is an operational matter for individual police forces and is not held centrally by the Home Office.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 12/09/2017 10:53:46 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2017 answer text <p>NHS England does not offer guidance on maximum travel time by road ambulance to the nearest hospital.</p><p>NHS England is working hard with its partners to help develop ambulance services that act as mobile assessment and treatment services and to deliver a networked approach to urgent and emergency care services that ensures patients are treated in the facility best equipped to provide whatever care is needed. For some patients requiring specialist care, this may be in a hospital that is further away.</p><p> </p><p>For patients who have suffered severe injuries in an accident, paramedics use triage tools at the scene to determine the likely injuries and best hospital for treatment. If the patient requires treatment in a Major Trauma Centre, the ambulance (or helicopter) can travel up to one hour, bypassing other hospitals en route, to take them directly to a Major Trauma Centre, each of which has a 24/7 trauma team immediately available.</p><p> </p><p>A small number of patients are too sick to travel this long. These patients are transported to the nearest hospital that has facility to provide immediate life-saving interventions and, once stabilised, they have a second transfer to the Major Trauma Centre to receive definitive care. The major trauma system in England has been carefully and independently monitored since its national introduction in 2012 and has significantly increased the probability of survival for patients with severe injury.</p> answering member constituency Ludlow answering member printed Mr Philip Dunne question first answered 13/09/2017 10:41:00 answering member 1542 label Biography information for Philip Dunne
