University Hospital, Limerick – Most Overcrowded In Éire.

University Hospital Limerick, serving North Tipperary, remains the most overcrowded medical facility here in Ireland for the third day in a row.

Today, May 1st 2019, 513 people are without a bed nationally; 62 persons of which remain without a bed in University Hospital Limerick, according to the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation (INMO)

REMEMBER: You can view accurate daily emergency department figures by clicking HERE. Same figures shown are a count of the number of additional patients on beds, trolleys or chairs, on inpatient units, latter above the stated complement of that unit and which provides a complete picture of our hospital overcrowding.

Surely, with Local Elections this month and possibly a National Election before Christmas, this is the time to eradicate, from County Tipperary, all Fine Gael councillors and any Fine Gael political “pretenders to the Throne”, thus demonstrating our anger and registering our sense of outrage.

The silence and acceptance continues.
