Public Petition on St. Brigid’s Hospital, Carrick-on-Suir (Resumed): Health Service Executive
Martin Browne (Tipperary, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
As mentioned earlier, in all the big hospitals we have trolleys lined up on both sides of corridors. The corridor in St. Brigid's is like a runway in an airport when compared with the environment in which people are asked to work in hospitals. If that is not a problem, it is a case of what is good for the goose is good for the gander. There are no trolleys in corridors in St. Brigid's and if its corridors are deemed to be too narrow for health and safety reasons, surely the HSE should close down places that have trolleys on both sides of corridors and trolleys can be barely squeezed through them?
