Well done, Keith, you did the right thing.
The last time I saw an elderly man on the ground, around 11 pm, he needed my help to get up, and was limping.
It was Winter and he had nowhere to sleep.
After calling 999 to inquire where a shelter could be found, and being told there was none, I ended up demanding a doctor, which promptly came, together with the Police.
They took the man to hospital where he belonged for the night and where they could cure him.
In fact, being Winter and raining, I had explained I wasn't going to leave him alone until they came.
