title: Public opinion on the ambulance service in a rural and an urban region.
abstract: Two groups of parents to schoolchildren (7 y and 15 y) were formed. The aim was to study if there were any differences in attitudes and knowledge concerning ambulance services in rural and urban areas. The results showed that knowledge about the ambulance service is good. Further, that day to day activities were considered more important than security measures to be used in emergencies. Parents living in rural parts considered the ambulance "near" but not as "near" as the parents in urban districts.
