My gran is nearly 99.
She broke her hip 3 weeks ago and is currently in a rehabilitation unit 20 mins away from the hospital.
She was transferred from hospital to the unit.
Last week a letter came in the post for a follow up appointment at the hospital yesterday.
I called the unit and they said they would get her transport to the hospital (I'm assuming someone would go with her as she still can't walk and has dementia )
Anyway today I received a call from the hospital asking why she didn't turn up.
I called the unit and they said the hospital refused to transport her there and they didn't think it was appropriate to take her via taxi.
I called the hospital who said they should have taken her in a taxi.
I asked why transport was refused and they said they wouldn't transport her as they are only transporting for cancer treatment.
Aibu to think this is a bit ridiculous seen as tho they transported her to the unit via ambulance and I'm unable to take her.
