asked the Minister for Health the number of hospitals in the country which have unisex wards and whether he is in favour of such procedure.
Written Answers. - Hospital Unisex Wards.
429.
I have not got detailed information on this. Generally, however, specific ward accommodation of this kind is not provided but in specialised facilities, such as intensive care units, the accommodation may be common for men and women. The provision of such wards would be a matter for the hospital authorities concerned.
