Hospital Car Service.
Headquarters—Ambulance Department. County Hall,
Kingston. KIN 1050.
Local Station—St. Helier Hospital. Fairlands 8893.
This service, which owes its development to war-time special
need, continues to be of very great benefit in the type of case
not able to use ordinary transport and not really needing to be
stretcher borne. The use of this service is restricted to cases
where the request is made by a medical practitioner. The
administration is an essential part of the ambulance service and
is under the control of the County Medical Officer.
