In September 2024, we received 79 hoax calls; one of our busiest months for false alarms.This September, that number was 51.
It’s a step in the right direction but still 51 times a real patient might have waited longer for help.Let’s keep working together to bring that number ⬇️
🚑✈️ Working side by side for your safety!
The National Ambulance Service works closely with our colleagues in DAA Airport Police and Dublin Airport Fire & Rescue on a regular if not daily basis.

#ServicesAreSuffering and we need a change of approach by @HSELive - collaboration, not dictation. Staff are the health service's greatest asset. Only the actions, not words, of @DonnellyStephen and @BernardGloster will show if they understand that.
All Health Sectors should be doing the same, Pay & Numbers in a Booming Economy, doesn’t add up, patients first, plain and simple. Recruit,retain and reward is paramount, @siptuhealth
NOW: @SIPTU members are protesting with our health union colleagues at St. Luke’s Hospital, Kilkenny and Connolly Hospital, Blanchardstown in opposition to the HSE’s Pay & Numbers Strategy. Health service staffing should be based on what’s best for patients.
