Health Minister To Hear Air Ambulance Requests On Upcoming Clare Visit

The Health Minister will be pressed to immediately enhance Clare's ambulance resources and provide a permanent air service during a visit due to take place in the near future. Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has accepted an invitation from the Friends of Ennis Hospital and is expected to survey the county before the end of the month. It comes just over a week after the Minister promised a full review into the expansion of Clare's health services, when unveiling the new hospital campus site in Raheen. Friends of Ennis Hospital Chairperson Angela Coll has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that while a new hospital is the ultimate goal, ambulance deficits must be addressed now.
