Manx Care CEO gives update after staff sickness forces closure
The CEO of Manx Care says patients needs are still being met, despite the Manx Emergency Doctors Service closing from midnight until 8am until further notice.
It's due to sickness in the MEDS team.
Teresa Cope says it was a difficult decision to reduce the service, but assures the situation is being monitored constantly.
Speaking live on Manx Radio's Breakfast programme this morning, Mrs Cope says, so far, it hasn't created additional pressure on the Emergency Department:
