What is st johns ambulance post code?
St John Ambulance is an organization that operates in various locations, so it does not have a single postcode. Instead, each regional or local branch will have its own postcode based on its specific address. To find the postcode for a particular St John Ambulance location, you would need to look up the specific branch or office you are interested in.
That's called the "Doppler" effect, named for the scientist who explained it.
You're standing still, but the train or ambulance is moving toward you. The horn or siren is going. The sound waves go out in every direction, at the speed of sound (about 750 miles per hour, depending on atmospheric pressure).
As the train is moving TOWARD you, the sound waves that it generates are being pushed together, because the train is moving too. We hear the effect as if the frequency of the sound waves is pushed together, increasing the frequency. As the train passes by, we hear the "Doppler shift" to the lower frequency, because how the train is moving AWAY and the sound frequencies are stretched out. Now we hear the sound at a lower frequency.
If we carefully analyze the Doppler shift, we can determine;
1. Exactly how fast the train was moving
2. How far away the train was when it passed by.
Police use the same thing; you're driving along the highway, and a police officer points his radar gun at your car. The radar gun is precisely calibrated for frequency. The radar waves hit your car and bounce off, and the Doppler-shifted frequency can be used to calculate how fast you were going.
How much does it cost to rent an ambulance?
The ambulance service I work for has just made a £12 million deal with Mercedes for a brand new fleet of state of the art ambulances. When they are fully equipped and ready for use their worth about £140,000
The Response Car that I drive is worth about £20,000 without the modifications and equipment.
But modified for use (lights, Siren, Graphics, Suspension and engine mod's)
and equipment ( Medical gear, drugs, onboard computer, radio, sat nav...) the car is worth about £60,000 in total once its ready for use.
You can buy an old de-commissioned ambulance for about £30,000, but it wont have any equipment or lights or markings. You need special permission to use that sort of gear.

Why premedicate before ambulating a postoperative patient?
If you premedicate a postoperative patient there is a higher chance of a faster recovery and less damage being done due to overexertion. I'm not entirely certain as to why you would premedicate before transport. It may be to help with vertigo or calm the patient as transportation can be stressful and possibly cause additional injury or harm.
