'I scrambled downstairs and sat on the sofa crying, waiting for someone to come' - Jenny Long. Telford
Subscribe to our daily newsletter!A 42-year-old woman from Telford has spoken of her ordeal waiting 17 hours for an ambulance after having a seizure at home.
Despite painkillers, and her husband's efforts to get her onto her bed to rest it, Jenny said the pain was getting worse. "It was such an ordeal, I have waited a while before – six hours –but when it got going through the night and it's gone 17 hours it was ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous." “The ambulance service relies on each part of the health and social care system working together so that our ambulances can get to patients in the community quickly.
West Midlands Ambulance Service said teams arrived at 06.50am the following day where Jenny was taken to Princess Royal Hospital.
