Mary White (Fianna Fail)

Three weeks ago, a friend of mine was admitted to an accident and emergency unit following a fall in a hospital.

I will not name the hospital or my friend. Her injured arm was put in a sling and she was sent home. She had asked for Anadin for the pain but the doctor said she did not need it. She returned three weeks later as requested, last Friday, and underwent an emergency operation for seven hours the next morning to have a plate put into her arm and what is called a "cup" on her shoulder. We need an explanation for this situation.
