A woman was forced to drive her 89-year-old grandad to hospital while he lay strapped to a plank of wood with a broken hip after they were told no ambulances were available
. Nicole Lea discovered her war hero grandfather Melvyn Ryan on the floor of his home in Cwmbran, Wales, having suffered a head and shoulder injury as well as breaking his hip.
She was left with no option but to get the pensioner who was in 'agony' onto a plank of wood into the back of her van in order to 'save his life'. She said: "I ended up, with my partner and mum's help, getting him onto a plank of wood and into the back of the van we bought to transport our dogs. "It's only because of teamwork, brainstorming and quick thinking that the three of us managed to get grandad - a WWII Army veteran who once fought for his country - to the Grange University Hospital within a couple of hours."
"They rushed to my van and got him straight inside on a trolley. He was also X-rayed within an hour or so. Our complaint is not with frontline staff at all, it's with the management."
