[QUOTE="Dogdaisy, post: 1378151, member: 377119"] Thank for replying, my mother didn't want to go to A&E and based on previous experience of waiting outside A& E in an ambulance for an hour, then 8 hours on a trolley on a drip, then being discharged at 11pm at night - its not good for an older person. My father died a couple of months ago after being admitted to A&E with pneumonia after being left on a trolley for 18 hours before getting onto a ward, so I quite understand why she wasn't wishing to go to A&E. The GP an arrange a direct admission and I don't quite understand why they don't do this and it may help relieve the terrible pressures on A&E. [/QUOTE]
