Patients are being asked to consider alternatives before attending the ED.
Mullingar Regional Hospital has issued its sixth warning in the last week of busy conditions in its Emergency Department.
Staff are currently working to manage the adult in-patient capacity, along with scheduled care.
Patients are being asked to consider alternatives, like consulting your GP or pharmacist, before attending the ED.
If you do come to ED and are not triaged as seriously ill, you may need to wait for a long period to be seen.
However, the hospital has stressed that those who require urgent care will be prioritised:
