524 people are waiting on beds today.
The INMO is calling for the consistent overcrowding in hospitals to be treated as a national emergency.
524 people are waiting on trolleys in Irish hospitals today - 105 of whom are in University Hospital Limerick.
Midlands trolley figures are at their highest level in almost three weeks today, at 18 - 13 of those are in Mullingar, with the remaining five in Portlaoise.
Medical evidence shows that spending more than six hours on a trolley is detrimental to a patient's long term health outcome, according to the Irish Nurses' and Midwives' Organisation.
Colm Porter from the INMO says, in stark terms, it increases mortality rates:
