When you have been taken to Scarborough Hospital from Bridlington ask to be taken back home by NIPPY TAXI's; the Scarborough & North East Yorkshire NHS Healthcare Trust have a contract with this taxi company .

It is not your fault the Minor Injuries Unit at Bridlington Hospital  is closed; this is the direct result of the Scarborough Hospital NHS Healthcare Trust for not putting contingency plans in place to cover staff sickness and maternity leave as they call it; the Trust have a duty to get you home safely after treatment and cannot leave you stranded at Scarborough Hospital.

If you have no money and no means of getting back home to Bridlington or surrounding area's, demand the Trust care for your wellbeing, you cannot be expected to hitch a ride; there are no Buses or Trains late at night....you cannot wonder the streets.....demand your rights as a patient to be taken home, if you call an ambulance and are taken to Scarborough hospital, the ambulance will drop you at A&E; after treatment you will be discharged and free to leave the hospital?  Yes, how do you get home?  Make a note of the points listed, you have paid into the NHS through National Insurance.
