The Consultant in Emergency Medicine at Sligo University Hospital says the hospital is currently “not fit for purpose”.
Dr Fergal Hickey says the hospital needs a new block, consisting of a new emergency department, radiology department, a new theatre complex and a new intensive care unit.
The new block would cost in excess of €100m.
And while the cost is excessive, Dr Hickey says it is without doubt what is needed.
