Just heartbreaking
The family of a five-year-old boy who died after he was sent home from hospital because there were “no beds” say he could have been saved if staff had listened to them.
The family waited for hours before Yusuf was seen but he was sent home even though the doctor treating him had said “it was the worst case of tonsillitis he had ever seen”, according to Mr Ahmed. “They kept saying to us, they kept saying to us, ‘We’ve got one doctor. What do you want us to do? We’ve got no beds available. What do you want us to do? We’ve got no space for him. What do you want us to do?
“We have contacted the family and will continue to do so as part of the investigation. I want to assure families that we have an appropriately staffed medical paediatric service who provide support to our medical colleagues working within our Urgent Emergency Care Centre when required.
