And so how many call takers do you have?

Oh, look, over the course of the day, so we've increased our resourcing by about 10% across our nurses and our paramedics.

And over the next 24 hours, we'll have about 50 staff that will be rotated on throughout the rosters.

We've implemented a bunch of different measures that are supporting to manage this demand.

So not only are our people picking up extra shifts and rising to the challenge, we're using digital tools to help support people to be able to book a callback.

And we've also partnered with Plunkett to help increase the clinical capacity that we've got within the service.

How is that working?

So when people are calling Healthline, they're being connected with one of our nurses or paramedics.

Brian, boy, how do you do it all? You're always busy.

Well, you know, they say if you want to get something done, give it to a busy person.

So that's me.

And it's going to be my – well, the Ride for Dad actually started here in 2007, and since then we've raised – uh more than two million dollars but this year's ride really on saturday yeah saturday june 20th newfoundland power came on road big shout out to newfoundland power because they're so generous to give us their parking lot starting on friday and carrying through on saturday uh registration eight to nine forty five kickstands up at ten i was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2014. uh went through surgery went through radiation uh all of this ride for dad It's all about starting that conversation with men, because as you know, Tim, being a man, we don't talk about our health and we don't like to have those conversations.

So this is about, you know, one thing, getting the blood tests, the PSA tests that can be important, an important tool in detecting prostate cancer.

But just tell us about your journey a little bit and how you got through it and how this led to you doing this ride for dad.

My dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer, and like most men, he didn't talk to me about it.

Anyway, he did pass, and in my mid-50s, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, and that was in 2014, and I had surgery, and then I had what's called a biochemical recurrence, which means that the prostate, the PSA didn't go away, so they had to treat me with radiation.

Sometimes it was even in these flying boats, basically planes that would land on water.

Um, you were probably tired.

You could be cold because obviously the, uh, particularly the flying boats flew quite low over the Atlantic compared with, uh, planes today.

So people were looking forward particularly to good food and good drink.

Yes, you will lose some money in taxes, but in the long run..."

If we do this, we'll attract people to come to Shannon.

If we attract people to come to Shannon, they'll see Ireland.

Some of them might decide to go and visit the place.
