Hospitals in Derry and Enniskillen under severe pressure

The Western Health and Social Care Trust is currently under severe pressure due to staff shortages.

The Trust has issued an urgent appeal for staff as services at Altnagelvin and South West Acute Hospitals remain extremely challenged.

They say maintaining bed capacity across all hospital settings is crucial.

The urgent appeal is for any staff, registered or unregistered, particularly staff nurses of all bands, nursing and care assistants, support services staff and housekeepers based anywhere across the Trust who are free to assist.
