CALGARY The union representing Alberta’s paramedics is calling attention to a shortage of ambulances and compounding issues with the provincial EMS system that continue to see response times decrease substantially. According to the Health Sciences Association of Alberta (HSAA), the City of Calgary alone is seeing a record number of red alert calls, meaning no ambulances were available to attend an emergency within city limits. New data shows that in 2018, there were 91,458 seconds (1.059 days) where zero units were made available to respond to a call. Fast forward to 2020 and that number more than tripled to 342,462 seconds (3.964) under a red alert status.
