Pre-hospital care allows patients with acutely life-threatening conditions to have immediate access to essential medical services to stabilize their conditions. It avoids unnecessary downtime contributing to deterioration before being seen and given definitive management in health centers or hospitals. Lack of or inadequate pre-hospital care puts patients at increased risk of morbidity and mortality. As seen in the documentary, some patients have died along the way, died even without seeing a healthcare personnel, or had worse conditions before seeing a healthcare personnel. Having advanced and integrated pre-hospital care in place is as vital as having health centers and hospitals. A multi-factorial and multi-sectoral approach are needed so that effective pre-hospital care is established and accessible to all Filipinos.
