Letter to the Editor: Count trolleys per hundred hospital beds

I read with interest the trolley count numbers in our public hospitals has exceeded 550 patient for the preceding two days (Irish Examiner, December 3).

In presenting the figures as raw data for each hospital, it is noted that University Hospital Limerick (UHL) had the highest trolley numbers at 71, followed by Cork University Hospital (CUH) at 60, and thirdly South Tipperary General Hospital (STGH) at 44.
