Kilrush hospital accommodation and lift
Daly raises the need for acute accommodation in Kilrush and asks about a long-pending lift; the board is examining lift proposals costing about £30,000, with possible local funding.
The Minister will be aware that there is a necessity in Kilrush in particular for some acute hospital accommodation. Has any attention been paid to that area in the plans which have been put forward by the health board for the Kilrush district hospital? The Minister will be aware that an application for a lift in the hospital was made quite some time ago.
Comment on this
I am aware that the health board are examining proposals for the provision of a lift in Kilrush hospital costing about £30,000. I gather that the monitoring group in the area may be in a position to provide some funds in connection with this development. I would be glad to hear from them also.
