Navan hospital review
Deputy Guirke asked when the review of emergency and acute care at Our Lady's Hospital, Navan would be released and warned against weakening services. The Tánaiste said he had not seen the review and would ask the Minister for Health to respond.
The review of the accident and emergency unit and acute care in Our Lady's Hospital, Navan is complete. The people in Meath are very concerned about a review that does not include protecting and enhancing existing services or looking at what it would cost to make Navan a fully functional model 3 hospital. We keep talking about patient safety but if we invested in Navan hospital, we would not have to worry about patient safety. When will this review be released to Oireachtas Members and the people of County Meath?
