What is the Bradley report that was written in 2005 and what effects did it have on the ambulance service?

The Bradley Report, published in 2005 by Sir Peter Bradley, was an independent review of the way the NHS handles emergency services, particularly focusing on the ambulance service in England. It highlighted issues such as response times, resource allocation, and the need for better integration with other healthcare services. The report led to significant changes in ambulance service practices, including improved training for paramedics and the introduction of new protocols aimed at enhancing patient care and operational efficiency.
