Hospital Services
1:00 pm

I hope that will be the case. The HSE has made a huge effort in ensuring cover to ensure services can continue, particularly in critical services. The Government sees a strong future role for Bantry General Hospital. The framework being developed for smaller hospitals is close to completion. While some activities, particularly the more complex work, will be transferred, there will also be movement in the other direction, including day case surgery. There is a strong and bright future for the hospital.
