John Perry
Ceist:168 Mr. Perry asked the Minister for Health and Children if his attention has been drawn to the fact that 70% of the calls lodged for an ambulance at Sligo General Hospital are from south Sligo, where it can take up to 50 minutes to reach the hospital; if, in the interest of patient care, he will consider setting up an ambulance base station in Tubbercurry, County Sligo; when a decision will be made in this regard; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
