A woman falsely claimed to be a doctor at the scene of an electric bike accident, a court has head. Joanne Graham stopped her car at the scene, treated the casualty and even suggested calling an air ambulance in despite the fact an experienced nurse called it "unwarranted".
The 47-year-old, of Mount Terrace, Corwen, denied pretending to be a medical practitioner by "wilfully and falsely using the title of doctor" during her trial at Llandudno Magistrates Court. She claimed to have numerous qualifications including one for "battlefield" treatments, the court heard.
She introduced herself as a "trauma medic" after cyclist Martin Jones fell of his bike and ended up two feet down a ditch on the side of Green Lane in Corwen on June 27 last year. She had brought two large bags of medical equipment and clipboard, cut off clothing and gave the patient an oxygen mask, Wales Online reports.
