Nenagh Hospital covered up overcrowding - Lowry

Independent TD Michael Lowry has accused officials at Nenagh General Hospital of covering up the problem of overcrowding during the Taoiseach’s visit yesterday.

Mr Lowry claimed the hospital authorities removed all beds from corridors in the hours leading up to Bertie Ahern’s visit. “The night before Bertie Ahern visited the hospital, I personally witnessed several beds on the corridor,” Mr Lowry said.
