Reports how quickly Guelph-Wellington paramedics reached emergency calls in 2022 and asks council to set the response time targets for 2024. The service did not fully meet the targets council had set, which staff attribute to rising call volumes and delays offloading patients at hospital. No direct costs come from the report; staffing needs would be raised during budget talks.
