A mum from Edinburgh has been left gravely concerned after waiting 90 minutes on the phone with NHS 24 with no response after her daughter developed a worrying rash.
Stephanie Perez, 32, from Oxgangs made the call to rush her daughter to A&E on Monday, November 28 after her two-year-old daughter became progressively worse with a high temperature and rash over the weekend before becoming lethargic.
But after 90 minutes of waiting to speak to someone on the NHS phone line, the worried mum took little Ella to the Sick Kids where they waited a further two hours to be seen.
