Hospital Services: Discussion

Mr. Liam Woods:
The Deputy asked separately about closed beds. Beds are mainly closed for workforce, recruitment or maintenance reasons. I do not have the current number but we tend to run at approximately 150 closed beds. It tends to be 50:50 between recruitment and maintenance. I can give the Deputy the list.
