133 Mr. O'Leary asked the Minister for Health when the proposed Kidney Dialysis Unit will be provided in Tralee General Hospital, County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
I am conscious of the needs of dialysis patients in Kerry and indeed elsewhere in the country. I hope to see the establishment of a dialysis unit at Tralee General Hospital as soon as resources allow. In this regard, the development of a dialysis service at Tralee General Hospital has been included amongst the developments for consideration for funding in the 1994 Health Estimates.
