Thousands spent to adapt ambulances to cope with obese patients



To the fatmobile!
Overweight patients are being carted off to hospital in specially adapted ambulances equipped to carry wider and heavier loads.

South East Coast Ambulance Service has spent £12,000 of taxpayers’ money converting two of its vehicles to accommodate fat people, reflecting the increasing burden obesity places on society.

The refits are in addition to standard trolleys and stair chairs found on all the trust’s existing ambulances, which can already carry patients weighing up to 50st and 35st respectively.

"Just like the rest of the NHS, ambulance services have to deal with the fact patients are getting larger," said Jo Webber, director of the national Ambulance Service Network.
