A terrified elderly woman has claimed she was left sitting in A&E for eight hours ‘while having a stroke, as medics told her they couldn’t help her’.
Jean Murphy was in such a state when she got to North Manchester General Hospital that she was ‘walking into walls’ and her ‘arm would not move’.
The 72-year-old, from Middleton, was left to suffer for hours before she was eventually seen by a doctor.
