Information Requested

How regularly are safety, mechanical, and clinical equipment compliance checks carried out to ensure they meet the required standards? 

Response

The Scottish Ambulance Service does not hold a single recorded frequency for all safety, mechanical and clinical equipment compliance checks. The frequency with which checks are undertaken varies depending on the nature of the vehicle, equipment or compliance requirement concerned. As a result, the Service does not hold the information in the form requested.
