Navan Hospital campaigners to meet Health Minister today

Efforts are continuing today to ensure that existing services at Navan General Hospital in Co Meath are maintained.

A delegation from the Save Navan Hospital Campaign has secured a meeting with the Health Minister Dr James Reilly this afternoon after he holds discussions with senior medical staff on the future of the facility.

Campaigners are looking for assurances from Minister Reilly that the current levels of service will be safeguarded, including the emergency department, and that surgery be reinstated after being halted last September.
