Sligo TD predicts that universal design for Surgical Hubs will lead to faster construction times.
A Sligo Leitrim TD says the confirmation of two new surgical Hubs being created in Sligo and Letterkenny is a vital part of delivering commitments made in the programme for Government to the people of this region. Deputy Eamon Scanlon says that with a similar design being used for such facilities in the country there should be no delays during the planning and construction phases Confirmation that two new hubs would be constructed in the North West, one in Sligo and one in Letterkenny was confirmed earlier this morning by the Minister for Health Jennifer Carroll MacNeill. In Sligo a new stand-alone, two-theatre surgical hub will be situated close to Sligo University Hospital.It’s expected that the facility will significantly expand elective surgical capacity in the region. Meanwhile Letterkenny University Hospital will see the development of a new two-theatre surgical hub beside the existing hospital building, along with the addition of 30 ambulatory day oncology chairs. Deputy Eamon Scanlon says with the same design being used for all new surgical hubs in the Country the planning and construction phases should be a relatively straight forward process.
