ED at Midland Regional Hospital Mullingar remains very busy

The Emergency Departments at the Midland Regional Hospital Mullingar remain very busy, the Ireland East Hospital Group have said in a statement today.

“The hospital remains in escalation and the teams are working to manage the current Adult In-Patient and Covid-19 Bed Capacity together with Scheduled Care.

“We would ask 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.

“Adult and Paediatric Patients who require urgent care will be prioritised.

“Hospital Management would like to thank the public for their support and understanding during this period.”
