my daughter sprained her ankle - she spent 2. 5 hours at A&E Royal Inf Glasgow - x-rayed and sent home without treatment - in extreme pain the next day - can't move around - could do with crutches - which cannot be issued without a re-assessment - she can't travel in such pain - she lives 3 floors up - 6 flights of stairs - could not face another 2-6 hours wait - so is reluctant to get help. The simple, common-sense solution of getting a taxi to pick up crutches and take them to her just does not appear to be available - what a downright mess the NHS is in - not at all helpful - they appear to seek complicated solutions to very simple problems - let's get back to common-sense approaches - and as for the helplines - don't get me started!
"No common sense"
