Hospital Services
Seanad Éireann — 2022-06-14
============================================================

Robbie Gallagher (FF), Labour Panel

I thank the Minister of State for the response. I welcome the positive response from the Minister for Health in that he is willing to engage with the RCSI Hospitals Group and the HSE with a view to extending the opening hours and the days of opening in terms of the minor injuries unit.
I compliment the staff at the hospital on the fantastic service they provide in this area and throughout the hospital. I also compliment management on its information campaign that has resulted in an increase in the number of people attending the injuries unit. I welcome the fact that the Minister for Health is now willing to engage in that regard and look forward to such engagement. I ask that the Minister of State conveys to the Minister that we would like that engagement to commence as soon as possible and to confirm same.
