The ambulance and paramedics were amazing, it was only until we got to the hospital we were sitting for nearly two hours and not acknowledged at all. My son is 3 years old nearly; he was struggling to breathe, lips were purple. I was extremely worried for him at this point.
Also we were told we were going to be given a covid test upon arrival at the hospital, which didn’t happen either, and before my sons diagnosis I thought he might have covid and I said this, no one tested us, I also said I had none left at home so I couldn’t even test at home.
He was diagnosed with croup and prescribed steroids. Which has helped massively. I just have to hope right now it’s not covid 19, otherwise how do I know weather to isolate? He’s always around other people, being at pre school and mixing.
I hope this is taken into consideration, as this is a hospital and supposed to stop the spread of coronavirus.
