    Unnecessary for a possible head trauma call-out?

    Your in the right here, I don't drink myself and end up looking after ppl all the time and if an ambulance is needed its not your fault and you should not be the one paying for it, I've called for a few over the years and never been landed with a bill. My friends respect me for been the one who'll take care of the sick one and make sure none of them end up dead in an ally the next morning. If they can't handle there drink then they should learn to not drink so much and take care of themselves

    The next day i got a text from my mate who owns the house
    Was expecting an apology but i got this...

    This was the exact message..

    "What the HELL went on last night.You broke my TV-you HIT Cat and made her bleed and there was an ambulance here last night"You can pay for my ****ing telly and you can pay the ambulance bill"

    I called her and told her EVERYTHING that happened-She said sorry she got snippets of the night off the girls and that was the conclusion she came to.However now her Bfs going mad cos He said i shouldnt have called the ambulance cos they would have to pay for it and he said if a bill comes im paying it!

    What was i ment to do leave her die in their bathroom!

    I don't anyone actually needs to make a comment about this. Your mates/mates are obviously complete ****wits. If they dropped the blaming you lark then I would be happy to forget about it and move on but if they maintain this sorta ****, I would telling them where to go, unleashing a few home truths in their direction and cutting them off. Clowns.

    Arrange for a new party. Get Cat and everyone drunk. Smash the back of Cats head in with a large object. BUT this time leave her and when she dies then you proved yur point that you did the right thing the first night.

    Sloppy drunks are sloppy drunks, no matter their gender.

    Jesus, these sorta posts making me cringe sometimes.

    Its simple really,
    Alcohol + Any Head Injury = Potentially fatal head injury.

    You made your best judgment as to what was needed, you were sober.
    They are making their judgment based on rumour lies and gossip as they were drunk, cant remember or werent there (in the case of the bf).

    Any resulting costs are the responsibility of the woman who was taken into the hospital for being so intoxicated as to cause herself injury.

    Personally, I would avoid the lot of them after making it known that they are the people who should be feeling bad, instead of trying to pass their own guilt on to your shoulders.

    as an ex-doorman in dublin city centre (for 7 years) I found women when drunk are a hell of a more difficult handful than the gents.

    not pc - but hey

    Like Boomer said, no ambulance charge, unnecesary call or not. The patient refused removal to hospital, thats her choice, and not that of the subscriber (the one who called the ambulance).

    The 'ambulance' charge most people talk about is actually the fee the hospital charges when the patient checks in. I think it is €60 now. Same charge weather the patient walks in under their own steam or arrival by ambulance. And waiting times are the same too, just to dispell the myth of being seen quicker.

    Trust me on this, I'm just after working 16 hours on a white taxi!
