My mom and dad live outside the city and last time they had to call an ambulance it took quite a while for them to get there. Not five hours, but quite a while. That's horrible that the person is having to go through that.

It happens a lot here which defies logic really, considering how affluent the country is. The truth is though, that it's a situation many other places face and it'll only get worse.
Lots of wide open spaces though, it's gotta be hard logistically.
In outback areas yes, although we have the royal flying doctor service that fly in and out in fixed wing aircraft, a service that works really well. But our cities are like anyone else's, millions of people in a concentrated area. Doesn't make sense that the ambulance (and hospital system in general) is in a shambles.
Yeah, that doesn't really make sense.
