Leaked HSE plan downgrades 3 hospitals

The claim, regarding hospitals in Nenagh, Limerick and Ennis, was made yesterday by Labour spokeswomann on health Jan O’Sullivan.

She said: “The memo circulated to staff in Nenagh hospital is the first indication that plans are underway to downgrade, at least, Nenagh and probably St John’s in Limerick and Ennis and to transfer a huge extra workload of A&E and acute services to the Regional Hospital in Limerick.”
