A 68-bed field hospital has been established at the University of Limerick Sport Arena, to free up bed capacity at the region’s overcrowded acute hospital during the Covid-19 crisis. | Read:

The Intermediate Care Facility is a fully-equipped Model One hospital unit, which will provide care for patients who are ready to be discharged from the acute hospitals in the UL hospital's group, but who need extra recovery or rehabilitation time before going home or being transferred to a nursing home.

The facility will be consultant-led and staffed by an experienced team of doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals, including occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech and language therapists and medical social workers. UL Hospital Group CEO Colette Cowan said it is expected they will need the Intermediate Care Facility until November.

Why...why...why...we are paying millions to Private Hospitals that are not even at 50% capacity. Regional Hospitals are practically empty...this is not making sense people....

Imagine if some of that money had went into nursing homes.

Bit fucking late

New student accomodation crisis averted!

this for the fall out from BLM mass gatherings?

why are college authorities saying they won’t need their sports hall until Christmas? Why didn’t the HSE rent something like the south court hotel which had a very large function room + bedrooms and is within 1km of the hospital?

Yet more SCAREMONGERING...we had to search high and low to find authentic case first time around. Now more money wasted on facilities that wont be used as many hospitals remain empty.

Nope. Timed second wave by government. Buckle up. Masks on.

Constructed and fitted out by defenceforces.

So we’re moving through the phases.... and a field hospital has been established. Doesn’t seem very reassuring for how the next few months are going to look

Is this a joke ? Surely this is below required standards

This will be fully occupied in October.
