Delay in responding

My wife was feeling very unwell on a Saturday and I called 111. I waited for almost 30-45 minutes before I got any reply. It was a scary moment because my wife had a fall and she seemed alright until she started complaining about not being able to see. And when they responded they asked if I could drive her to A&E, and I said no. They told us that it was going to take 2 hours before paramedics can come to the house. After 2 hours my wife was not responsive and when they came, they had to rush her to the A&E.
