Hospital Delays

  • Hi all,

    A message targeted for the ambulance content advisors but open to all.


    A while ago I suggested to the devs a hospital queueing/delays system, I’m aware this would be quite a big project to implement but just wanted to bring it up again to see if there’d been any advancements or plans to implement this?


    I feel this also applies to the police for their custody suites, as I know many forces experience problems with units waiting at custody to handover detainees simmilar to how ambulance spend time at hospital waiting to handover.


    My preferred option would be a system where once the hospital beds are filled, you can still send to that facility but ambulances then join a queue at the hospital to handover, you can speed this up by sending an Ambulance Liaison Officer.


    However, as this is obviously going to be a big commitment for the development team, I’d also like to suggest a system simmilar to how you can set a delay before vehicles are dispatched from station, be able to set a time delay before vehicles clear at hospital.


    I think this would work well for all player types as it doesn’t force people into a more realistic playstyle, you can still play however you choose, but fosters realistic options for those who choose to engage in that playstyle.


    Let me know what you think,

    Charlie :)

  • Thanks for the suggestions Charlie.

    I first suggested the HALO unit and hospital queuing as you described back in 2020 which I filled you in on when you suggested the same to me last year. This is still in the pipeline but clearly other things have taken priority.

    Whitchit please review the suggestion for police to have a similar system and feedback to me your thoughts.

    We will also take into considering the suggestion of delayed clearing.
