examine negligence further in more detail including this case: Kent, the plaintiff, suffered from asthma and was pregnant. Her general practitioner attended her, called 999, and asked for an ambulance to transport the plaintiff to the hospital. It took the ambulance 38 minutes to get there. The plaintiff experienced a respiratory arrest as a result, which had serious repercussions including significant memory loss, a shift in personality, and miscarriage. Kent filed a lawsuit against the London Ambulance Service (LAS), claiming that the agency was negligent for not providing her with oxygen in the ambulance in a timely and consistent manner.
