Well last week my dad was bought in here by ambulance as he tried to pick me up from the floor (I have cerebral palsy and I fell). dad had his arms under my arms to pull me up and as I leant back on him to pick myself up dad went back on the floor and I fell on top of him. dad hit his buttocks on the floor. he cried. ambulance took dad to this hospital as they refused to take him to barnet hospital. done x-ray some blood test, painkillers and home. tuesday I took dad to gp. Again painkillers and this time referral to acute musculoskeletal for physiotherapy (still waiting for an appointment).
Where are we now. Ambulance this morning took dad back to this awful hospital a&e . Guess what. Fracture on the spine.
I said to the A&E consultant he was here last Saturday and they would not do a scan. consultant just shrugged it off.
