People Asked To Avoid Midlands Hospital ED Today

Staff are currently trying to manage the volumes of patients presenting.

Mullingar Regional Hospital's Adult Emergency Department is busy again this morning.

The hospital is 'in escalation' and staff are working to manage the current adult in-patient and Covid-19 bed capacity, along with scheduled care.

Management is asking patients to consider their options before attending the Emergency Departments.

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, adult patients who require urgent care will be prioritised.
