A man with asthma was left laying on the floor of A&E struggling to breathe for 10 hours, the Manchester Evening News reports. His partner has condemned his ordeal and called for "massive" change to the NHS.
Dave Moth, 30, from Middleton in Manchester, was taken to Royal Oldham Hospital by his partner Becka Jackson, 30, after he began vomiting and was short of breath.
Becka initially called 111 at around 9pm on June 7, and said she answered a series of "vague" questions. A doctor called her back 40 minutes later - but Becka said the "really rude" doctor asked the same questions again, and insisted on speaking to Dave. She told the MEN: "I said ‘If you listen, you can hear him being sick at the side of me'."
