Place person in Accident & Emergency (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abode

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'place' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'person in accident emergency' is the wordplay.
'person' becomes 'bod' (I've seen this in other clues).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'accident emergency' becomes 'ae' (this might be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'bod' put within 'ae' is 'ABODE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for abode that I've seen before include "stay" , "House made of adobe" , "Archaic dwelling place" , "Pad" , "Home or domicile" .)
