Cavan ED facing 'high volume' of patients

The Emergency Department at Cavan General Hospital is currently experiencing significantly high levels of activity and is in escalation. According to the HSE, there are high numbers of patient presentations to the Emergency Department. All patients should be advised of significant delays and limited bed capacity at present. If any alternatives to an Emergency Department referral are available these should be explored as a priority. The local hospital is still providing full emergency care if it is required.
