Calls to address growing crisis at Altnagelvin Emergency Department

There have been calls for government to address the escalating crisis at Altnagelvin Emergency Department.

SDLP MLA Mark H Durkan says a recent visit to the ED with his son over Christmas highlighted the toll that is taken on patients, families, and overburdened staff who are struggling to cope with unrelenting demand.

The Foyle MLA says problems at the Emergency Department are symptomatic of issues plaguing the health service.
