X - Ray facilities in Helston

To prevent the elderly and vulnerable having to travel long distances to large Hospitals more suited to major Trauma, with small injuries such as finger dislocations (which still need an X-ray to diagnose). This would free up staff to treat life threatening, major cases, and prevent patients waiting, often in severe pain,for hours in A&E. for with minor injuries.
I tripped over in the road in Helston and could see my thumb was at a strange angle. My son drove me straight to Helston Hospital Minor Injuries Unit. I was in a lot of pain but they just said go to Truro A&E. This was at 2.30. and I finally had the dislocation set at 10 that night. No pain killers offered, or blood wiped away - I was a 'Minor Injury' and frankly, clogging up the very busy department. The old lady next to me had fallen on her face and she too, sat with me the same length of time, covered in blood. We should have been treated at a Minor Injuries Unit near where we live, it makes sense, surely ? If my son hadn't been there it would have been an ambulance and then left stranded in Truro with no way of getting home, late at night, which I also have experienced.
