My 92 year old grandmother fell on her kitchen floor and split her head above the hairline down through between her eyes down the side of her nose.

The floor was a pool of blood, we couldn’t move her from the floor. My aunt called the ambulance around 19:00pm, multiple times we called them for updates and got told “sorry, we’re very busy”… by luck my brother stays a few doors down from an ambulance driver who he asked to help and that man sat with my gran for 3 hours stemming the blood and keeping her calm while pulling strings to get an ambulance there. She finally got an ambulance after 10:00pm but had to sit in the back of the ambulance when she got there for another hour because there was no bed for her.

If it wasn’t for that man then she would have been dead.

That’s just one of the recent experiences I’ve had with the NHS.
