Update: 2025-10-18
Description
A meeting of Clare County Council has heard that University Hospital Limerick is "embarrassingly unsafe" for patients.
It comes as the local authority has passed two proposals calling for a model 4 hospital to be built in this county.
The Health Minister has promised to make a decision on the matter in December and while the first of three planned 96 bed blocks opened at Dooradoyle this week, its still seen an average of 80 patients on trolleys every day since.
Clonlara Independent Councillor Michael Begley says services must be established in Clare.
