Hospitals Under Extreme Pressure | Galway News

University Hospital Galway is in crisis mode with record-breaking ED crowds and 51 patients stuck on trolleys—highest in the country. Elective surgeries are being postponed to prioritize urgent cases, and patients are being contacted directly. The hospital is urging non-emergency visits to be redirected to GPs or injury units to ease pressure. Across Ireland, 516 patients nationwide are waiting for beds, while Portiuncula Hospital remains less strained. Don’t flood the ER—critical care needs your help.
