Can you jump waiting list ringing 999?
say you had kidney stones in agony and youre on a 6 month waiting list for the operation to remove them.....then one night youre in agony and you ring 999
does this then mean you have a better chance of leaping that waiting list and getting the operation asap?
I assume you get prioritised for treatment, they send you to the acute ward I recall.....but if youre in screaming pain are they then more likely to rush you for the operation? is agony reason enough or does it have to be life threatening? Ive seen people with kidney stones, theyre in 24 hour agony and to let them wai months is inhumane
often wondered about that but never really asked the question?
