A man has been charged with attempted murder after a nurse was stabbed at the Royal Oldham Hospital on Saturday. Rumon Haque, 37, has also been charged with possession of a bladed article after the incident in the Acute Medical Unit on Saturday. Detective Superintendent Matt Walker said: 'Our thoughts are with the nurse as she continues to receive treatment in hospital for her injuries, and our priority remains supporting her, her family, and her colleagues at this difficult time.
'We continue to work closely with our NHS colleagues to support anyone who has been affected by this incident.' Haque has been remanded to custody to appear at Manchester Magistrates' Court on Tuesday. The nurse, a woman in her 50s, was seriously injured in the incident at around 11.30pm on Saturday. It is believed that she was attacked with a sharp instrument that was not a knife, and was left with life-changing wounds. Health Secretary Wes Streeting described nurses as 'the backbone of our NHS' after hearing of the woman's injuries. Jim McMahon, the Labour MP for the area, described it as a 'senseless attack'. He posted on Facebook: 'We are all shocked at the senseless attack on a nurse in the A&E department of the Royal Oldham Hospital. 'Our thoughts are with the nurse, family and friends, as we wish a full recovery.
