Neurology services in Mayo are effectively non-existent. Would it be a case that marginal cases, who maybe in a hospital with a full service would be referred and seen, are now just being left without even a referral because there is deemed to be no point because of the waiting lists elsewhere? I am talking in particular about the elderly who have neurological conditions. I assume that for significant trauma cases there would be a full transfer to Dublin or wherever. However, elderly patients who may have had the onset of a neurological issue might just be left there unattended by a neurologist.
