You said, with regards to a broken hip:

 

"Firstly, a broken hip leaves absolutely no doubt of its existence in the victim or anyone who tries to move the victim."

 

Then you said this. Evidence please.

 

I suggest you ask someone with a broken hip.

Oh. Sorry. Can I have evidence to substantiate your claim.

 

Maybe a link?

 

You yourself have said many times that personal experience or personal opinion doesn't cut it.

Maybe he has a low pain threshold. ????

I'm asking you. Please let us all see how anyone can know all the details about a broken hip.

 

Thanks.

What about asymptomatic fractures?

 

How would "anyone" know about broken hips in all circumstances? 

 

Thanks.

Don't need to. You made the comment. You can tell us. I think that's the way this works.

 

I guess you just made an unsubstantiated claim and can't back it up. 

 

Ho hum.

Not to mention that if not moved in the correct manner by a trained professional, further and lasting damage can be inflicted.

Maybe just too much management.

Quite so, they have a "Diversity Czar" who is paid 35,000 pounds more than the CEO, she gets 230,000 pounds per year.

I guess walking across the street and grabbing a gurney and an intern was beyond anyone's thought process.

 

 

Exactly my thought (except maybe for the intern).

 

The ambulance wasn't going to magically teleport him. They were going to get him immobilized on a guerney. 

 

One suspects the "few yards from the hospital" bit is an exaggeration.

I was bored but also interested so I checked, how sad is that!

 

Assuming the patient lived near to the village hall he was about 500 meters from the emergency room entrance, although he would have had to travel about 2.0 kms by road to get there.
