Survey showed Mallow meeting most targets

THE most recent HSE evaluations at Mallow General Hospital found that the north Cork hospital was reaching most of its targets.

Mallow General was surpassing the emergency department target of ensuring that all patients are seen within six hours of arrival.

Healthstat results show that patients were seen within five hours at the hospital. The results, published less than three months ago by HSE, also show patients were seeing a physiotherapist within 15 days, compared with a national target of 70 days.
