Had to leave an old dear at home once as she point blank refused to be shifted despite her bubbling breathing being heard from the front door of the flat. Phoned GP who was due to come out 2 hours later to try and get them round earlier but they refused. Left the patient at home with a neighbour and told control. Saw our RRV bloke and a crew in resus later, absolutely livid. They had been sent to an address by a GP who told his receptionist that the patient had slumped in her chair and to call an ambulance. In the letter he left it stated she was having difficulty breathing and would A&E be so kind as to assess her. When RRV got there within 8 mins (yay) the patient was on the floor under a duvet, friend was asking if she was ok, GP had disappeared in a puff of smoke. Oh, and the patient was in cardiac arrest. Not all of them are that bad bit this obviously stuck with me.
