THE STATE’S health service quality watchdog is monitoring hospitals in the midwest and northeast although it has not launched a formal investigation, its chief executive has said.
Tracey Cooper said the Health Information and Quality Authority (Hiqa) received concerns about hospital groups in these areas relating to emergency department problems and other issues.
The Louth-Meath group in the northeast comprises hospitals in Drogheda, Dundalk and Navan while the midwest group is made up of hospitals in Limerick, Nenagh and Ennis. (Times) >
