University Hospital Limerick is always receiving negative publicity around here, but there was good news in the announcement yesterday that the opening date of the new emergency department might be brought forward following the significant upgrade of the software systems. It includes the integration of the patient and clinical management systems which allow consultants and their teams to maximise the operation of the emergency department. This is a good news story, given the fact that University Hospital Limerick covers the entire mid-west region with the other hospitals in its group. As we are always knocking it here, it is good to welcome good news.
