Tried to drop my neighbour off at A+E. He can hardly walk. The other week I had to bring another emergency in, so I pulled in briefly to A&E bay to allow staff to come straight out to my relative. Now the bay is closed off, so my neighbour had to walk from the drop off point over 250 yards away. There is nowhere to drop emergencies off, and ambulance wait times are two hours - when we are only live a mile away.
So it's hard to get an ambulance, but it's hard to drop off emergencies at A&E. Sorry, but I think it's an absolute nightmare.
