If I got 10p for every time I heard that during my ambulance career I’d be a very, very rich man.
It’s a common misbelief that, because someone pays taxes which, actually do partly fund the NHS, that said taxpayer has the right to demand certain things from an ambulance crew. I suggest you don’t think that way, or use the title statement, or you may find you the crew do their job exactly as they were trained to, ie. No extra mile for you like most other patients get.
Every crew member has their own response…
