An extra 100 Code 1 cases each day since April has prompted Ambulance Victoria (AV) to plead for help to save paramedics and ambulances for the sickest patients.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Driven largely by respiratory illness, the increase in demand for life-saving paramedic care has put significant strain on the system this winter.<\/p>\n

AV chief executive officer Jordan Emery said Victorians should consider alternative healthcare options for less-urgent medical concerns.<\/p>\n

“We all have a role to play in ensuring paramedics are available to respond to the sickest people in our communities,” Mr Emery said.<\/p>\n

“We’ve seen a significant increase in Code 1 cases, on average 100 more each day compared to just a few months ago.<\/p>\n

“This increase in life-threatening cases means we need to respond lights and sirens to administer life-saving medical care \u2013 and we can’t do that if ambulances are being called to less-urgent or avoidable situations.”<\/p>\n

AV acting director of regional and clinical operations Jessica McGowan urged Victorians to ensure they were protected against season illness.<\/p>\n

“Vaccination remains one of the best ways to protect against seasonal illness and if you’re feeling unwell or you have flu-like symptoms, stay home to help stop the spread and protect those most at risk,” she said.<\/p>\n

“Paramedics do not replace GP care. It is vital that if you are feeling unwell that you seek medical advice as soon as possible, before your illness escalates.<\/p>\n

“That advice could be from a local GP or pharmacist, or the online Victorian Virtual Emergency Department is also a great option and it’s free.”<\/p>\n

She said calling an ambulance when you do not need one could delay help for someone whose life depended on it.<\/p>\n

“The message is simple: save paramedics for emergencies.”<\/p>\n

There are many ways to get health advice and care outside of Triple Zero (000), including:<\/p>\n

Victorian Virtual Emergency Department: 24\/7 free online access to emergency doctors and nurses – head to vved.org.au<\/a><\/p>\n

Urgent Care Clinics: GP-led care for urgent but non-emergency issues – head to betterhealth.vic.gov.au\/urgent-care-clinics<\/a><\/p>\n

NURSE-ON-CALL: Free advice from a registered nurse 24\/7 – phone 1300 606 024, and A local GP or pharmacist.<\/p>\n

If you or someone you are with is experiencing a life-threatening emergency, phone Triple Zero (000) immediately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
