RCH services under the spotlight

Meeting to hear hospital concerns

The future of services at Ramsey Cottage Hospital will be up for discussion at a requisition meeting in the town tonight (23 May).

Members of the public have requested the gathering after endoscopy procedures this week relocated from the north to a new, purpose-built facility at Noble's Hospital.

Voters have asked for health officials to attend the meeting at Scooil Ree Gorree at 7pm.

In Tynwald last week, minister Kate Beecroft apologised to the Court for the way the news was made public, but stressed the move would improve efficiencies and reduce endoscopy waiting times.
