BTW, ive seen ambulance service berlingos loading chairs up ramps with a winch to pull the chair in, no bad backs there then!

Proper Health and Safety training, and a contract that allows you a minimum 6 months off paid sick if your back goes.

All very proper then, but which door were they loading into m8?

rear


not that an ambulance service would know any better......

plus note:- i bet they do more wheelchairs than most hacks...

I wonder if they have vca certificates

I bet theyve far more H&S than any LA or hack, and more WAV work...

Just as well they ain't on PH without a meter innit.

I can get the disabled in my car, chair in the boot and away in a lot less time, makes the client feel human again as well, almost the great escape for 5 minutes to them.

i dont doubt it, but it aint "WAV" is it, you could fit a swivel-out seat and most would be happy, just dont tell your LO as youd be told to submit for a new compli[img]ance test..

BTW, "disabled" does NOT automatically mean they MUST use a wheelchair


(for any LOs looking in)

Thanks wanna, I suspect that all WAV's will be back to rear loading if a chair lift should become compulsory.
H & S regs should take presidence over the silly LA rules that they make up on the back of beer mats at lunch breaks.

ranks arent suited to rear loading, the vehicle would need space, but the wheelchair would need to be "on the road", side loading off the kerb is easier

LTi/Tx's cant load from the rear - and never will

How many ambulance crew did they use?
