Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on Sláintecare Reforms

Mr. Dean Sullivan:

We are on track for delivery in 2024 of the 96 extra beds to which the Senator referred. We have also taken steps and secured agreement through this process to streamline arrangements for a further 96 beds at Limerick in 2026. We are also exploring opportunities in and around Limerick. We are looking at different mechanisms that might ease the pressures on the accident and emergency department there to create additional bed capacity-----
