UK hospital tells 83-year-old pensioner who broke arm in two places she is too old for treatment
Susan Halbert, 83, was turned away from Glasgow's New Victoria Hospital
She was taken there by paramedics after she fell at her home and broke her arm
Doctors told her they would not see her because she was over 65-years-old
The pensioner was then taken to A&E, given a splint and then sent home

This is what leftie sociopaths are turning the UK into. What next, compulsory euthanasia for over 65s?

Our doctors take an oath to do no harm, not keep you alive until 65 and then fuck off.

Damn. Just damn.

Honestly, I can't conceive of how someone tells someone obviously in pain and distress that they have to leave without care.

Sounds like a war against those over 65.

Re: UK hospital tells 83-year-old pensioner who broke arm in two places she is too old for treatment
The Liverpool Care Pathway for the Dying Patient (LCP) was a care pathway in the United Kingdom (excluding Wales) covering palliative care options for patients in the final days or hours of life. It was developed to help doctors and nurses provide quality end-of-life care, to transfer quality end-of-life care from the hospice to hospital setting.

Now discredited, the LCP was widely abused as a 'tick box exercise', with patients being casually assessed as terminal, heavily sedated, and denied water so the diagnosis became self-fulfilling. Hospitals were also provided cash incentives to achieve targets for the number of patients placed on the LCP.

Same thing happened to my grandmother last week in the US. She is 84 and has dementia. The neurologist says she has about 3 years left. She fell down broke her hip. She had surgery but the insurance (Aetna) wouldn't pay for acute rehabilitation and stuck her in post acute rehabilitation.

This entire story is full of shit. She turned up at a drop in clinic, a minor injuries department where the most they will do is bandage you up and other trivial clinical procedures. They cannot set a double fracture, you need an accident and emergency department whether you're, 6 or 65 or in-between. The paramedics took her to the wrong place, probably even made the suggestion it was about age.

Re: UK hospital tells 83-year-old pensioner who broke arm in two places she is too old for treatment
I read an article the other day claiming that by 2050 we will live up to 150 or even 200 years. Half scientists and doctors work to achieving this, and the other half to let the people over 65 die. We live in an insane world.

Living that long (over 150 years) doesnt help the economy, the demographics, the food sources, the living space etc.
We all understand that such technological advances cannot apply to all the senior people of the future. They just dont tell us.
