NHS
Turns out the 2 year wait for your 2nd referral is enough time for them to lose your 1st referral, shrug, and just not refer you without telling you.
NHS
I was only able to attend the meeting in which they told me they'd lost my referral because a friend of mine happened to know the http://nhsattend.vc url for the institution. They'd also forgot to send me the appointment link.
NHS
There would've been no other way for me to address that, since they also don't have an open phone line, only a voicemail inbox with weeks of backlog.
NHS
Literally, the amount of effort I have to put in to keep the NHS from tripping over itself is OBSCENE.
NHS
I am so. fucking. fed. up. with the NHS consistently and predictably failing me on all fronts.
