51 Answers
If some one had a bad fall and staggered home and family called ambulance and when paramedics arrived and said nothing wrong with him and they can clearly see the man is crying with pain.
when taken to hospital he needed five stiches and had a broken arm which is now in a cast.
Did the paramedics get it wrong?
can they get it wrong?
are they allowed to get it wrong?

Not sure who your previous reply was aimed at , but I think you'll find a lot of us have sadly had to use the Ambulance Service for medical emergencies. Whist mostly a smooth running system of course it can have its failings. As stated above , make an official complaint with all the facts you have. Let us know how it proceeds.

ok your missing the point - if you go to a & e you will find loads of drunks - people with common colds -- people from other countries who can not speak the lang -- all draining the system, then you get a brit sitting in a corner all hes life paid to teh system being brushed off.
come on the system failed or do we allow the paramedics to get it wrong becasue they are ""only Human""

i'd say no, the paramedics did not get it wrong, as it as not a serious or life-threatening condition. How far was it from their home too the hospital? It's just under 20 miles from mine to the nearest A&E, I wouldn't dream of going by ambulance if I was capable of getting on a bus/taxi/calling a friend. In that 20 minutes, a life could be saved
