Council Regulation on Procedures for amending the Sirene Manual: Referral to Joint Committee. - Health Service Reform: Statements (Resumed).
Merlin Park Regional Hospital is very old. When built, at a time when the scourge of TB was prevalent, it was decided to put units a long way from each other. People must make their way from out-patient consultant appointments to an X-ray area in a different part of the building. One wonders how people dealing with broken limbs manage this. It does not make sense. This is one problem which should be investigated by the new office.
