Its relative!!! If 760 over 8 hours is 95 call per hour. If it is 24 hours is 32 call per hour, on average 2 minute per call.

SO it really depends on how many men tend the emergency call!!! tio boh.

Just put 3 categories of calls

1) Non- emergency and not important
No drop in vital readings
Fine $1000

2) Non- emergency but important
Fine $500

3) Real Emergency and must have ambulance
OK
