Re: Patient Transfer and NHS Bureaucracy.
I also had problems re transport.I had an appt.last Tuesday,as I am unable to get there via public transport I asked for hospital transport & was given a number to ring,but as I had not had transport with them before they wouldnt give it to me & I was told to contact my G.P. ,they wanted to see the appt. letter but I said "I cant get to the surgery which is why Im asking for transport & no, there is no one else able to bring it round "they promised to 'get back to me ',but no one did,so I rang again, "someone will get back to me"This time ,being fair, someone did ring back ,to say transport was arranged for 9.30 am [ my appt.was not till 10.45 am & hospital not far away,so I arrived very early,then had to wait over an hour to come home.But better than hanging around for public transport .I need to go to another Hospital on the 30th,so hope I will be able to get transport thereThread Tools | |
