    Manx public urged to 'choose well' when dialing 999

    A call has gone out to the Manx public to support the Ambulance Service and \'choose well\' when contemplating a call to the emergency service.

    The Choose Well campaign has been rolled out once again to coincide with the busy festive period, it's focuses on reducing the number of non-emergency 999 calls requesting an ambulance.

    Since it's initial launch in July it's driven down inappropriate demand.

    Last Christmas demand leapt by 30% resulting in the busiest period ever experienced by the Ambulance service.
