dd fainting several times a day. Education, and wheelchairs? Advice, law, provision?

[BlackeyedSusan]

Dd is passing out/fainting/losing awareness/collapsing several times a day. Been to see the Gp and had a hospital admission, there is nothing they can do until she is offered an appointment in another month or so. (apparently)

In the mean time, she needs to be accompanied everywhere, and held up. We could do with a wheelchair as it is impossible to go out and walk more than a few feet as I have to support her all the way in case she collapses. Who do I contact to arrange something?

If it does not improve by the end of the holidays, she will have hit two weeks missed school? Who do I need to contact about getting some education at home? So far I have had some work from school but not everyteacher has been able to send something, (what with it being the end of term and nearly Christmas and all the other stuff teachers have to do. ) Who do I need to contact and is there any guidance on this?

I would contact GP and ask why she can't be seen as an emergency and ask them to refer for a wheelchair from somewhere. Either Red Cross or wheelchair services?
Email school and ask them education as they should be providing it and should contact la on your behalf

She should get a wheelchair from wheelchair services with a referral from a GP (but it will be a manual - can she/you manage that?). There will also be a waiting list though an urgent referral shouldn't be more than a couple of weeks.
In the meantime you can hire from the Red Cross for a suggested donation. I can't remember how much ours was exactly but quite small.
Home education can be arranged by school but they will need a letter from GP/other doctor to say she is unable to attend.
Sorry to hear about this. It sounds really tough.

A former Brownie of mine broke her leg and had a wheelchair within the week, so the same kind of timescale. But I assume arranged through the fracture clinic?

The provision of home education is the responsibility of your local authority, though they may arrange it via the school. Assuming there is medical backing, your daughter is entitled to the equivalent of full time education, or as much as she can cope with; that may not be the same as school hours, however, because it's recognised that home tuition is more intensive than classroom teaching. It could include things like online learning. Don't allow yourself to be fobbed off with bits of work being sent home, that isn't teaching.

not even getting bits of work sent home.
