An employee, believed to be a nurse,  was seriously injured in a  knife attack at a  hospital.
The woman, in her 50s, was  seriously injured in  a knife attack at Royal Oldham Hospital at  around 23:30 GMT on  Saturday.
A member of the public  is believed to have attacked  him with a sharp instrument which was not a knife, Greater Manchester Police said. She remains in  the hospital for  treatment.
A 37-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and  is in police  custody. Detective Sergeant Craig Roters appealed for information, adding:  "We know that news of this nature will  be shocking.
"The local community can expect to see an  increased police presence  as we carry out  our investigations, but  we are also  here to  reassure you and answer any questions you may  have."
Jim McMahon, MP for Oldham West, described the  attack as a  "senseless attack."
In a  post on social  media, he said:  "Our thoughts are with the nurse,  her family and friends as we wish  her a full  recovery."
