A police boss has defended not mentioning a 95-year-old woman was Tasered by officers when a statement on the matter was first released.
Clare Nowland is now receiving end of life care in Cooma District Hospital, in southern NSW, after she was critically injured last Wednesday morning.
Staff at the Yallambee Lodge nursing home called police early last Wednesday after Ms Nowland, who has dementia, is 43kg and uses a walking frame, took a serrated steak knife from the kitchen into a small treatment room.
