Just been

[victor]

talking to a S-i-l in Yeovil.
She has a neighbour in her 90's who was found on the floor when her Carer called.
She called the Paramedics asked if they would take her to Hospital --the reply to that was --we can't take her to Yeovil Hosp there is no room ,things there are worse there than what you are hearing

[saundra]

I quite honest ly think no body is telling the truth because they dont know themselves

[TheOstrich]

I don't think anyone really knows the whole truth as to what's going on, Vic. Do you know where she finished up?

[JanB]

Oh, poor lady

[victor]

Sat on a chair in her bungalow on her own

[Kaz]

I honestly don't think they would have left her if she needed to be in hospital, the paramedics must have thought it was safe to leave her. SW Ambulance are working their butts off at the moment.

[meriad]

Agree, with Kaz that they'd have found a her a space if it were needed, and dare I say - at her age chances are she's safer staying home on her on in a chair vs in a hospital surrounded by who knows what.

I do hope though that she has someone coming to check on her a lot more than just a few times a day - people like that should be allowed to have more visitors vs just health care workers
