HSE Mid West has advised patients who have appointments across Limerick, Clare and North Tipperary, tomorrow Monday 6th January, to expect disruption to services, including the cancellation of clinic appointments.
It is recommended patients should only attend their appointments if they have phoned ahead to confirm it is taking place and that it is safe for them to travel.
Patients who cannot make contact with the clinic will be contacted directly while all cancelled appointments will be rescheduled over the coming days.
HSE Mid West will be reviewing all services on a day by day basis and expect to have some staffing deficits due to the weather, however planning is ongoing to ensure as many services run as possible.
If unwell its advised to consider all available healthcare options, including local pharmacies, your GP, or the out-of-hours GP service.
