A government TD says it's another vote of confidence in the hospital.
The impending appointment of a contractor to build a unit to house the new MRI machine in Mullingar hospital is another vote of confidence in the facility, according to a government TD.
That process will begin in the coming months after local groups raised over €100,000 to buy the scanner.
Junior Minister and Longford-Westmeath Fianna Fáil TD, Robert Troy says it's testament to the work being done by community groups and staff:
