Hospital experiencing very high levels of attendance.
Naas General Hospital says the Emergency Department is under pressure due to high levels of attendance.
Management are asking patients with non-emergency conditions to seek assistance from other parts of the health service.
In a statement they say, “Naas General Hospital is experiencing very high levels of attendance. The Emergency Department (ED) is under pressure with many patients requiring admission.
Where possible, the management at Naas General Hospital is asking patients with non-emergency conditions to seek assistance from other parts of the health service such as their local Pharmacist, GP, GP out of hours service, or a local injury unit.
Unfortunately, patients who are presenting at the ED in Naas General Hospital with non-urgent conditions are experiencing very long waiting times to be seen.
Any patient who needs emergency hospital care will be seen and Naas General Hospital would urge such patients not to delay attending the ED. Do not delay in seeking medical attention if you suspect you are having a heart attack or stroke, please dial 999 or 112 in an emergency.
Naas General Hospital apologises for any inconvenience caused and once again thanks the public for their support and understanding.”
