Referral wasn't made despite clear instructions

Attended an appointment on 17 June regarding my mother who had recently been discharged from hospital following a respiratory infection. The hospital discharge documentation indicated that a blood test and chest imaging should be organised by the GP practice for late June or early July. This was discussed during a face-to-face consultation and I was provided with the necessary information to arrange both tests. Arranging the blood test proved straightforward, however when I contacted the hospital to schedule the imaging, I was informed that no referral had been received from the practice. This represents a recurring issue where referrals have not been completed as discussed, and I found myself needing to return to the practice on 27 June to attempt to resolve the matter. I will monitor whether the referral is actually submitted over the coming days, though I remain uncertain about the outcome. The NHS undoubtedly requires support and investment, but I believe the primary need is improved staff accountability and ensuring that commitments made during appointments are followed through appropriately.
