we quite often get jobs “in general area of Leeds” when address is taken from mobile phone info. which is clearly useless. Ideally have someone meet the crew at nearest road access, we’ll then decide of we’re taking the ambulance down a track/ across a field etc. If this is not possible, i.e you’re out on your own/ performing CPR then you need to know roughly where you are, the name of landmarks that are on maps (not local names, as we often don’t know them), where you set off from and where you are going.
Not being a rural paramedic this isn’t my specialist area, but having dealt with a few jobs on t’moors we normally refer to mountain rescue/ air ambulance or expect you to get yourself to a road.
Sadly the last job i did on the moors involved a large grow of people, none of whom knew where they were, none of them had a map and no one thought to walk back to the road to call the ambulance. They also decided to shelter under a bushy tree, so the air ambulance had no chance of finding them. I’m not sure the time delay had any effect on the outcome of the situation, but when one chap suggested that we took “too long to get there” I was less than diplomatic.
