Funds delay adds to city A&E fears

THE future of the only A&E hospital service in Limerick city centre at St John’s Hospital remains uncertain, it was claimed yesterday.

Kieran O’Donnell TD said a delay in getting HSE funding has heightened fears.

Mr O’Donnell said: “The Government and HSE behaviour with regard to these vital A&E services at St John’s hospital for the people of Limerick city is nothing short of disgraceful.”
