Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

The HSE has put a team into UHL to assist with the management of patient flow within the hospital over the past two months. It has had some beneficial impacts in increasing patient flow and the management of patients within certain wards and so forth. Additional staff have also been recruited. We are very conscious of the pressures that are on emergency departments at the moment. The winter initiative, which the Minister for Health will launch in the next ten days, will contain measures to deal with the situation in Limerick and those in other emergency departments as well.
