I tripped on a pavement kerb that was covered in leaves and hit my head on the pavement. I was bleeding profusely. Two cars stopped to help me and a postman in his van. The postman immediately said he would take me to the Community Hospital Minor Injuries Unit, St Andrews, Fife which was nearby. He took me there, brought me in and left me at the desk. I was immediately seen by the nurses there. The bleeding was stopped and the wound dressed. The help at the Minor Injuries Clinic was excellent - kind, cheerful, reassuring and competent. They patched me up, did the thorough check for concussion and even did a quick mend of my glasses which had broken and I couldn't have felt better looked after. Thank you to everyone.
