The INMO said the level of overcrowding should not be allowed to continue
Some 22 people are on trolleys in Naas General Hospital today.
704 patients have been admitted to hospital without a bed this morning according to the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation.
Naas resident and INMO General Secretary Phil Ní Sheaghdha said: “We are seeing yet another predictable post-bank holiday surge in hospital overcrowding.
“Of the five bank holidays we have had so far this year, we have seen out of control numbers of patients on trolleys in the days following.
“This level of overcrowding must not be allowed to continue further into the year.
"Senior decision makers in both the HSE and Government must come together now to develop a year-round plan to tackle this crisis.," she added.
