UHL Overcrowded: Fire Safety Alert | Cork News

Limerick’s University Hospital is in crisis, with over 130 patients waiting on trolleys and chairs — the most overcrowded hospital in Ireland. Nearly half of all patients nationwide stuck over 24 hours for a bed are at UHL, made worse by holiday weekend pressures.

The HSE is monitoring the situation closely, but immediate action is needed to ensure patient safety and restore care standards.
