Paramedics Battling To Help ‘Extremely Unwell’ Patient Left Note Slamming Their Parking<\/b>
\nParamedics treating a critically-ill patient who needed blue-lighting to hospital were astounded to find a note on their ambulance slamming them for blocking someone\u2019s driveway.<\/p>\n

Emergency service workers from the West Midlands Ambulance Service had rushed to reports of an \u201cextremely ill\u201d man<\/a> who was vomiting blood on Friday night.<\/p>\n

But when they returned to their rig, they discovered an angry message slamming their parking.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou may be saving lives but don\u2019t park your van in a stupid place and block my drive,\u201d the scribbled note read.<\/p>\n

Paramedic Tasha Starkey tweeted an image of the note which, according to the Coventry Telegraph, was left under the windscreen wiper in Small Heath, Birmingham at around 4.30pm.<\/p>\n

\u201cCrew alerted an extremely poorly patient to hospital… minimal on scene time, arrived at hospital to find this note,\u201d Starkey wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis patient was TIME CRITICAL,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\nThe image was then shared by the West Midlands Ambulance Service on Facebook, who wrote: \u201cSometimes we just don\u2019t know quite what to say.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was left on one of [the] ambulances today: \u2019You might be saving lives but don\u2019t park your van in a stupid place and block my drive.\u2032<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the time, the crew were helping a man<\/a> who was extremely unwell after vomiting a lot of blood,\u201d the post continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey assessed his condition and immediately look him on blue lights to hospital where he was in a critical condition.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur staff will always try and park considerately, but sometimes, there just isn\u2019t time. #sorry #patientscomefirst.\u201d<\/p>\n

The note triggered a wave of angry responses on social media, with many reminding the author that they would not be upset about a blocked driveway if paramedics were saving them or their family.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would not wish harm to anyone, but if this person ever needs an ambulance, let\u2019s hope it doesn\u2019t have to park half a mile down the road so as not to block someone\u2019s drive,\u201d one person tweeted.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve said it before and I\u2019ll say it again all these morons need to go out on shift with Ambulance Services, Police and Fire staff to see how these amazing people work so hard to save people\u2019s lives or take dangerous individuals off the roads. They would see the other side.<\/p>\n

\nBecause I\u2019m sure they were there for hours and the chap HAD to go out at the exact time the ambulance was there, worse thing is that the patient was one of his neighbours at a guess<\/p>\n
