Hospital staff asked to volunteer for weekend work to ease pressure around June bank holiday

In a letter to staff, senior HSE management warned of a “substantial impact in our hospitals with onward implications for the rest of the healthcare system which extend beyond the bank holiday weekend period”

“As you know, the solutions to these delays are not confined to Emergency Departments but involve a system-wide response to maximise patient flow within hospitals as well as between hospitals and the community,” staff were told. Picture: RollingNews.ie
