Six Months Too Late: When Waiting Becomes Fatal — What IB‑Salut Must Now Answer

Answer

How can families in Mallorca protect a patient who is stuck on a waiting list?

Families should keep a simple timeline of symptoms, referrals, appointments, and any emergency visits. It also helps to ask for written updates and to report any clear deterioration to the GP or specialist team without delay. If the person is getting weaker, repeated follow-up is important so the case does not disappear into routine administration.
