I had my parents visiting for a birthday celebration and unfortunately my Mum fell ill in the night.
An ambulance was called and they were in my house within 2 minutes of phoning - unbelievable as we live in a rural village! The crew were so professional and thorough.
They took her to the Emergency department at Stoke Mandeville Hospital and she was attended to immediately. She had a head CT, and ECG and blood tests. All tests were done and results seen within 4 hours and she was discharged with follow up referrals.
The service was just incredible! ED was very busy as it was a usual Saturday night but it just goes to show that when real emergencies happen the NHS does work. We just need to work on getting those that clog up the services to the right place for the help they need before they need to go to ED.
