Minister says idea has been discussed
Medical staff could be drafted in from England if the Island’s health service needs support.
The department of health and social care says it has the ability to call for help from the North West Hospital Trust if required.
Staffing pressures at Noble’s Hospital are currently said to be ‘stable’ but the idea has been under discussion.
Minister David Ashford says this shouldn't cause alarm:
MGP rider suffered 'neck and chest injuries' following crash in practice
Mauro Poncini fatally injured at Cruickshanks Corner
Inquest opens into death of local MGP rider
Sam Naughton fatally injured in incident at Doran's Bend
