Daw’r penderfyniad ar ôl i werthusiad annibynnol, a gomisiynwyd gan y Cyd\-bwyllgor Gwasanaethau Ambiwlans Brys, roi darlun cadarnhaol o’r model.  
Mae’r model ymateb clinigol hwn, a gyhoeddwyd yn haf 2015, yn symud i ffwrdd oddi wrth dargedau hanesyddol sy’n seiliedig ar amser mewn perthynas â phob galwad heblaw am y rhai lle mae bywyd yn y fantol, sef y galwadau ‘coch’. Mae’n canolbwyntio fwy ar y canlyniadau i’r cleifion, gan flaenoriaethu’r rheini sydd â’r angen mwyaf am ymateb brys.   
  
Y targed yw ymateb i 65% o’r galwadau coch mwyaf brys o fewn wyth munud. Mae’r targed hwn o 65% wedi cael ei gyflawni bob mis ers i’r peilot gychwyn ym mis Hydref 2015\. Mae perfformiad wedi parhau i wella, ac ym mhob un o’r 9 mis diwethaf, mae dros 75% o alwadau coch wedi cael ymateb brys o fewn wyth munud.   
  
Dywedodd yr Ysgrifennydd Iechyd, Vaughan Gething:


> “Ers rhoi peilot y model ymateb clinigol newydd ar waith, mae Gwasanaeth Ambiwlans Cymru wedi gwella ei berfformiad yn sylweddol.
> 
> “Mae’r gwerthusiad annibynnol, sydd wedi ei gyhoeddi heddiw, yn cadarnhau ein penderfyniad i gymryd y cam eofn o roi’r model newydd ar waith  yn sgil llwyddiant y peilot. Wrth gynnal y gwerthusiad, gwelwyd bod y gwasanaeth ambiwlans a phartneriaid allanol i gyd yn cydnabod yn glir mai’r peth iawn a phriodol fyddai defnyddio’r model newydd hwn, sy’n newyddion gwych i ni.
> 
> “Dw i hefyd yn croesawu’r ffaith bod yr adroddiad yn cadarnhau y bu gwelliant sylweddol mewn perfformiad o ran amser ymateb i’r rheini sydd â’r angen mwyaf am gymorth clinigol brys. Mae’r ystadegau ambiwlans diweddaraf yn cadarnhau hynny, a llai na phum munud oedd yr amser ymateb arferol i alwadau lle mae bywyd yn y fantol ym mhob un o’r chwe mis diwethaf. 
> 
> “Hoffwn ddiolch i Wasanaeth Ambiwlans Cymru, y rheini sy’n ymdrin â’r galwadau, y clinigwyr, y gwirfoddolwyr a’r aelodau eraill o staff am eu holl waith caled yn sicrhau llwyddiant y model.
> 
> “Mae’n dda gweld bod y peilot wedi ennyn diddordeb dros y byd, ac mae Gwasanaeth Ambiwlans Cymru wedi cael ei wahodd i roi cyngor i nifer o wasanaethau ambiwlans yn Lloegr ac yn yr Alban, yn ogystal ag ymhellach i ffwrdd yng Nghanada, Seland Newydd, Awstralia, yr Unol Daleithiau, a Chile. Ar hyn o bryd mae Ymddiriedolaeth Gwasanaethau Ambiwlans yr Alban yn cynnal peilot cenedlaethol i dreialu model sy’n debyg iawn i’n model ni.

> “Mae’n hanfodol ein bod yn bachu ar y cyfle hwn i barhau i arwain y ffordd yn rhyngwladol yn y maes pwysig hwn, er lles pobl Cymru.”

The decision comes off the back of a positive independent evaluation of the model commissioned by the Emergency Ambulance Services Committee (EASC).  

  

The clinical response model, announced in summer 2015, moves away from historic time\-based targets for all but the most immediately life\-threatening or ‘Red’ calls. It places a greater focus on patient outcomes, prioritising those in most need of an urgent response.   

  

The target is for 65 per cent of the most urgent ‘Red calls’ to be responded to in eight minutes. The 65% target has been achieved each month since the trial started in October 2015; performance has continued to improve and in each of the last 9 months, more than 75% of red calls have received an emergency response within eight minutes.   

  

Health Secretary Vaughan Gething said: 



> “Since the implementation of the new clinical response pilot, the Welsh Ambulance Service has improved its performance significantly.
> 
> 
> “The independent evaluation published today backs our decision to take the bold step to adopt the new model, following the successful pilot. The fact they found there to be clear and universal acknowledgement, both from within the ambulance service and external partners, that moving to the new model was appropriate and the right thing to do, is excellent news.
> 
> 
> “I also welcome that the report confirms response time performance for those in most need of an immediate clinical intervention has improved substantially. The latest ambulance statistics confirm this with a standard response time of less than five minutes to immediately life\-threatening calls in each of the last six months. 
> 
> 
> “I’d like to thank Welsh Ambulance Service, the ambulance service call handlers, clinicians, volunteers and other staff for their hard work in making the model the success it has been.
> 
> 
> “It’s fantastic that the pilot has attracted global interest and the Welsh ambulance service  has not only been invited to provide advice to a number of ambulance services in England and Scotland, but further afield to Canada, New Zealand, Australia, USA and Chile. The Scottish Ambulance Services Trust is currently undertaking a nationwide pilot of a very similar model to our own.
