Please forgive me if I tread on sensitive toes at this time, but wasn't the clinic on Cheung Chau renowned for calling out GFS at all times of the day and night for what other medics considered non critical medical cases? It was so reported in the SCMP, that bastion of accuracy, at the time.
A good risk assessment model is used in some EMS operations to balance the risk of dispatch to the seriousness of the medical case and the environmental and operational conditions. I am sure you have such a model at GFS, but did this operation slip through a James Reason hole?
