Concern’s being raised over the discharge of elderly patients from University Hospital Limerick in the middle of the night.
Nineteen ‘over-75 year-olds’ were removed from the hospital which serves North Tipperary between midnight and 7am in the past 3 months, according to the Irish Daily Mail.
Sinn Fein’s Health spokesperson David Cullinane says it’s down to a lack of beds.
He is calling on the Health Minister to provide additional beds for hospitals.
