Nurses say there has been a reduction in the level of overcrowding at the region’s main hospital today.

There were 89 admitted patients waiting for a bed at the Dooradoyle facility during morning rounds, with 69 of those being accommodated in overflow areas of wards.
It comes on a week when HSE Mid West has warned of high attendances and has appealed to patients to consider all care options before attending the Emergency Department at UHL.
