Mr Corbell: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) (a) The Canberra Hospital initiated load sharing

(a) twice in January 2006

(b) six times in February 2006 (of which four were initiated up to the date of this question)

(b) Calvary Public Hospital initiated load sharing

(c) no times in January 2006

(d) once in February 2006

(2) This information is not collected by ACT Health

(3) According to reports from our hospitals:

(a) None

(b) Four

(4) No category one or two emergency department presentations which arrive by ambulance are required to wait for medical attention.

It is not possible to determine from current systems the ailments or the triage categories of the four people who waited with paramedics as the data does not differentiate patients based on who waited with them prior to treatment by a hospital clinician.

(5) ACT Health does not record information on the number of paramedics waiting with patients in the Emergency Department.
