Figures from the INMO show 25 people on trollies at the region’s main hospital, including 21 in it’s accident and emergency unit.

The figure is the second highest of any hospital outside of Dublin.

Nursing staff at UHL have recently expressed safety concerns about the levels of overcrowding at Dooradoyle, but this week the Head of the HSE Tony O’Brien insisted the situation there was improving.
