Adjournment Matters. - Hospital Accommodation.

 

The hospital has benefited from a number of developments during the 1990s and into the new century. In December 1991 St. Teresa's Ward was opened, providing 16 additional medical beds. Services were expanded with the appointment of a consultant physician with an interest in the elderly, who took up duty in 1993. A new acute psychiatric unit was opened in February 1992. In 1994, 24 rehabilitation beds with linkages to the hospital were commissioned at the Sacred Heart Home in Roscommon. In 1997 educational, seminar and conference facilities for all Roscommon health services were provided with the refurbishment and renovation of the training centre at Roscommon County Hospital.
