Many years ago when I started out in the helicopter business, all the pilots received some first aid training from the St Johns ambos. It was pointed out to us both by the ambos and doctors that the best person at an accident scene was an ambo because that was all he was trained to do whereas doctors were more medicine and hospital orientated.
No doubt if there were sufficient docs of Robbos experience that would be great but there isn't.
So for me a broken leg, I would like an ambo. For a heart transplant, I would like a doc.
