Slumped outside hospital, exhausted (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shagged

'exhausted' is the definition.
(shagged can mean extremely tired)

'slumped outside hospital' is the wordplay.
'slumped' becomes 'sagged' (I've seen this before).
'outside' indicates putting letters inside.
'hospital' becomes 'H' (abbreviation for hospital).
'sagged' placed around 'h' is 'SHAGGED'.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
