Vol. 415 No. 1

Written Answers. - Edenderry (Offaly) Hospital.

Tom Enright

Ceist:

387 Mr. Enright asked the Minister for Health if she has any plans to proceed with the invitation of tenders for the provision of a 40 bed unit at Edenderry District Hospital, Edenderry, County Offaly; when she anticipates that this much-needed geriatric unit will be provided for the people in the area; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

As I indicated to the Deputy on 27 November last the provision of a new 40 bed nursing unit for the elderly at Edenderry District Hospital is regarded by the Midland Health Board as a vital element of their community care programme. The Midland Health Board will be keeping the matter under review.
