She is in 'biting' pain 😡

A 78-year-old Long Eaton woman has been left waiting in pain for a hip operation after an ambulance did not show up to take her to an appointment.

East Midlands Ambulance Service , which runs the service, apologised and said it had "got it wrong". Speaking to Nottinghamshire Live, Ms Atkinson said the extended wait had "screwed my head"."I'm in that much pain and I can't take morphine so I have to take weaker medication," she described. "When I try and move it bites.

The NEPTS provides transportation for patients who need support with getting to their health appointments. Ms Atkinson said it was not the first time she had felt let down by EMAS. Ms Atkinson, who has carers three times a day and whose family live in Yorkshire, first began having problems with her hip during the pandemic and has waited eight months for her operation. "My operation was cancelled and the list was endless," she continued.
