The ambulance man also told me that they came down broadway ... and he was driving and they both breathed in when they saw the bollards ... the ambulance only had a couple of inches on either side ....thing is theyve made the ambulances wider now from a few years ago ... might be an idea for hyndburn council to look at ....

Glad to see you are ok Jen.

Maybe they should not have made the ambulances wider if the bollards etc had been designed to fit the smaller ones.

At least they did manage to get there.

Some streets these days literally cannot get an ambulance down them.

When i had one in iceland the manager took me into the back where they do all the deliveries and the ambulance came round to the back of iceland. When i mentioned that to the ambulance man he said he didnt know about that

So what did they go and do - make them wider. I know it is a problem as a friend drives the new bigger ones.

Hmmm. Doesn't sound like they gave much thought to how they were actually going to get down the streets when they decided to widen the ambulances. :(

There's less and less room on streets these days with most people having a car and some families having two.

All emergency services are given a managed access plan in circumstances like this .. whether the driver had it is open to question Shill.

You take care !! xx

Think they were based at blackburn ambulance station .. not accy.

Still the same Health Authority Shill. When designing a precinct such as ours, all emergency services are consulted on access, etc.

But it does help when the the personnel know the area, now we're getting drivers from Burnley picking up patents from Blackburn and Blackburn personnel picking up from Burnley, nobody knows better than me what a fantastic job the ambulance service does, but a little help from the suites in Ivory Towers wouldn't go a miss on the odd occasion.
Glad your okay jen, its terrible being taken ill away from the security of your home, but at least you didn't end up black and blue this time, take it easy

Glad you are OK now - it is reassuring to know that we live in a community that cares.
In some cities people would just walk past and leave you lying there, or maybe even rob you:eek:

Re: Thanks to the staff at wh smiths
 
I am fine ..... have been down accy today and took a card and biscuits in to wh smiths and said thank you ... Spoke to the manager and she says a man caught me as i went and stayed with me and looked after me until the ambulance arrived. It was a customer ... and they didnt get his name or anything ...

That's a shame, sure he will be wondering how you are.

You are a real star about your problem Shillelagh, and thoughtful that you went back to reassure people. Very worrying for people who don't understand.

Glad to hear you are ok Jen.. like someone else said I think it's lovely that you went back into Smith's to assure them you are ok..I am sure the gentleman who caught and cared for you will probably go back in to see if he can find out how you are and thanks to you they will be able to tell them you are ok

Take care xxxxx
