Meetings have taken place with the HSE to address the issue.

Sinn Fein is concerned the majority of beds at a Laois Nursing Unit are not being used.

Laois Offaly TD Brian Stanley says there are 28 available spaces in Abbeyleix Community Nursing Unit, however only eight are full.

€4m has been spent refurbishing the facility in recent years.

Deputy Stanley has been meeting with the HSE to raise his concerns:

Day care facilities at Abbeyleix Community Nursing Unit will reopen in the coming months.

It follows a firm commitment from the HSE, having been closed for a prolonged period of time.

Deputy Stanley is welcoming the move:
