Situation awareness in young novice ambulance drivers: So much more than driving

Emergency responder SA appears quite different to 'ordinary drivers', suggesting well-developed road-related schema are required before young novice ambulance drivers are behind the wheel in a highly-emotive, time-critical situation. Drivers are not simply 'driving'; they are engaged in a breadth of tasks while driving (e.g., accessing dynamic case details) which, for safety, rely upon adequate SAS, therefore training programs should target SAS development.
