Disgusting lack of care and compassion

My elderly mother (85) had a fall at home. She was hurt, in pain and disorientated. She walked half a mile up a 1:3 hill to the surgery and was turned away by staff because she “didn’t have an appointment”. I understand that the surgery isn’t a walk in centre. But where is the care and compassion for an elderly lady, clearly upset, in pain and in need of care to be told- go to the infirmary!!!! My mother in the state she was in then got on two buses exacerbating her injuries to travel to the hospital alone. No one at the surgery thought that an elderly lady who had fallen, hurt herself and was in a great deal of pain , wasn’t thinking clearly and might have needed help. No one thought to perhaps check she was ok? order a taxi? phone a family member? Disgusting behaviour by the staff at this practice and they should be thoroughly ashamed!!!
