Nurses suspend A&E walk-outs

NURSES have suspended walk-outs which they have staged over conditions at the & Emergency Department (ED) of the Mid-West Regional Hospital.

The decision was taken after talks between the HSE, SIPTU and the INMO under the auspices of the Labour Relations Commission on Tuesday.

Nurses have staged four-hour stoppages, which HSE management said were a matter of great concern given the work of the ED&.
