People are being urged to consider all care options before attending the Emergency Department
Naas General Hospital has been experiencing a high level of attendance and admissions over the weekend.
The Emergency Department (ED) is under significant pressure with many patients requiring admission.
Where possible management at Naas General Hospital are asking patients with non-emergency conditions to seek assistance from other parts of the health service such as their local Pharmacist or GP.
The hospital said patients who are presenting at the ED in Naas General Hospital with non-urgent conditions are experiencing long waiting times to be seen.
However, 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.
If you have to attend the ED in an emergency situation ensure;
- you wear a mask,
- practice social distancing and ensure you tell the triage personnel if you have any signs/symptoms of Covid-19.
