Table 6 Intercorrelation (Spearman’s Rho) of dimensions for the ground ambulance and the total 2016 sample

	Ground 16					Total 16
Dimension	1	2	3	4	5	1	2	3	4	5
1. Management support for patient safety
2. Manager expectations & actions promoting patient safety	.46					.45

All correlations significant at the 0.01 level (2-tailed). 0.0–0.25: little or no relationship; 0.25–0.50: fair degree of relationship; 0.50–0.75: moderate to good relationship; > 0.75: very good to excellent relationship [85]. Ground 16 = ground ambulance sample 2016, Total 16 = combined HEMS and ground ambulance 2016 samples
