Over 9,700 people were admitted to hospital without a bed in August, in Ireland.
Over the course of the month of August, there was nobody left waiting on a trolley in Midlands Regional Hospital Tullamore.
The figures were generally stable elsewhere in the Midlands, with 134 waiting for a bed in Mullingar, and 67 in Portlaoise.
Nationally, over 9,700 people were admitted to hospital without a bed in August.
It's the worst on record for the month, with University Hospital Limerick the most overcrowded with 1,885 patients waiting for a bed according to the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation.
That's nearly double the amount of the next busiest hospital, which was Cork University Hospital with 984 patients on trolleys.
Labour's health spokesperson Duncan Smith says it's very concerning:
