Trolley crisis: Public urged to stay away Limerick Emergency Department 'unless absolutely necessary'

The University of Limerick Hospitals Group appealed this Wednesday to the public to stay away from the Emergency Department at University Hospital Limerick (UHL), “unless absolutely necessary”, due to patient overcrowding at the accident and emergency unit.

The UL Hospital’s Group said UHL is “currently managing high volumes of patients that have arisen due to a busy weekend in the ED”.
