‘Elderly ladies on trolleys had dignity taken away in A&E’

That is according to a member of the HSE West Forum, Independent councillor PJ Ryan, who provided a witness account of what he called the ‘absolute chaos’ at the A&E last Thursday.
Mr Ryan’s time at the A&E with his son Tómas, who had dislocated his shoulder in a hurling match, coincided with part of the 25 hours spent at the A&E by a 101-year-old Co Clare woman.
