Rising ambulance waiting times across Ayrshire have been blasted as “abysmal”.
South Scotland MSPs Brian Whittle and Sharon Dowey have criticised the Scottish Government for the growing waiting times for an ambulance within NHS Ayrshire & Arran.
Their comments come after a Freedom of Information request from the Scottish Conservatives flagged that the longest wait for a ‘purple’ incident – those who are most at risk of dying – since 2018 was an alarming one hour 19 minutes in April this year.
