Mid-Western hospital closures and bed cuts

Summary

Taylor-Quinn sought a debate on proposed Mid-Western Health Board hospital closures and bed reductions, including at Cahercalla and other facilities; the Chair would communicate with her.

With your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, I wish to raise on the Adjournment the proposals of the Mid-Western Health Board to close three district hospitals and the maternity hospital at Cahercalla, Ennis, to reduce the number of beds in the general hospital by 50 and to reduce the number of beds in St. Joseph's Geriatric Hospital by 75.
