A mum has described scenes inside a Merseyside NHS treatment centre as "heartbreaking" after witnessing large numbers of children sat on the floor in the "full to capacity" facility.
The mum, who has asked not to be named, took her three-year-old child to the Arrowe Park Urgent Treatment Centre on Sunday and said she was shocked at what she witnessed.
She shared an image of people sat on the floor, lining the corridor of the building, with a number of them children. Another image showed a sign on the wall stating "we are currently full to capacity - you can expect waits in excess of four hours."
