Anyone not triaged as seriously ill, may need to wait for a long period to be seen.
The Adult and Paediatric Emergency Departments are both extremely busy at the Midlands Regional Hospital Mullingar.
The hospital is in escalation and the teams are working to manage the current Adult and Paediatric In-Patient and Covid-19 Bed Capacity together with Scheduled Care.
Patients are being asked to consider their options before attending the Emergency Departments.
Anyone not triaged as seriously ill, may need to wait for a long period to be seen.
However, those who require urgent care will be prioritised.
The Hospital Management is thanking the public for their consideration at this time.
