Call for clinical review of new psychiatric unit on CUH campus
A full clinical review by an agreed independent expert to examine proposals for the operation of a new psychiatric unit on the campus of Cork University Hospital, Cork City, has been demanded by SIPTU. “This review should be conducted as a matter of extreme urgency in order to allay concerns that the public may have about the standard of care for vulnerable patients which will be provided in this unit,” said SIPTU Health Division Organiser, Paul Bell. “We believe that the Minister for Health, Leo Varadkar, should embrace this suggestion in an effort to ensure that this badly needed unit is opened without further delay,” he added.
