    A mother says she waited five hours to be seen at Rotorua Hospital's emergency department last month - with her three-year-old who had two injuries to his head, including a "tennis ball-sized lump"

    A mother says she waited five hours to be seen at Rotorua Hospital's emergency department last month - with her three-year-old who had two injuries to his head, including a "tennis ball-sized lump"


    Charnelle Burrows said she believed staff didn't take her son's injuries seriously - sustained in separate incidents on February 25.

    Health New Zealand says the ED was fully staffed that day and patients are triaged by condition, with a six-hour target.
