Called NHS 24 in Scotland where we live, when our five year old son complained about a tummy ache which kept getting bad on a Friday night. Related how we had earlier incident about 3 weeks ago in England where we had travelled when we were dealt with by the NHS there.
This made the Nurse handling the call inform us that she was going to refer us to the Care Commission since we had ignored our son's condition. We reminded her we had sought care in England but she said it was not the case as though we were fabricating it. That there was no record of a call prior to this and that she was making a complaint about us.
We just did not expect such a response. Not only stressing us out but in fact harassing us. Such poor service from NHS 24 when the doctors providing the care are so wonderful. We have been left shaken as a family how a call for advice makes us out as aggressors.
