AN ELDERLY woman died after being left in agony on the freezing floor of a GP car park for more than two hours after falling over.
Josephine Ellis, 76, had just attended an appointment at a mobile clinic adjacent to the Hoveton and Wroxham Medical Centre near Norwich, Norfolk, when she lost her balance while walking to her car.
An inquest into her death was told that no blankets were brought out for her by staff as she waited for an ambulance, despite the fact it was a cold October day.
When paramedics eventually arrived and took her to hospital, they discovered she had broken her hip, reports EDP.
Once admitted, her condition worsened and she tragically died three days later.
At the inquest into her death, Josephine's family raised concerns over the care she had received – prompting the hearing to be adjourned so that coroner Jacqueline Lake could further investigate the case.
