Admits last minute decision was 'far from ideal'
Manx Care has apologised to patients who were due to have an operation this week - for cancelling their surgery at the last minute.
All elective surgery was called off yesterday and today.
It's for the installation of 'essential' new theatre equipment and staff training.
Chief executive Teresa Cope says the timing was 'largely out of control' but admits it's 'far from ideal':
