Portlaoise meeting to air hospital concerns
A meeting against any downgrading of the Midland Regional Hospital in Portlaoise will take place tomorrow night.
There are fears for acute surgery, A&E and other services at the facility as the country faces into a junior doctor shortage from July 11.
Laois County Councillors are seeking a meeting about the concerns with Health Minister Dr James Reilly and HSE management.
The Hospital Action Committee is behind tomorrow night's gathering at Portlaoise GAA club from 8pm.
