Chambers welcomes long-awaited modular unit for Mayo University Hospital

Fianna Fáil Senator Lisa Chambers has welcomed the long-awaited arrival of a temporary modular unit at Mayo University Hospital.

Senator Chambers said: "I am delighted to finally see that the temporary modular unit is being delivered this week to the hospital, with the hopes to have it up and running by the end of November.

"I have long advocated for an extension at Mayo University Hospital and although a more permanent solution would be preferred, I am glad to see that the request for a temporary modular unit has finally been listened to.

"It is no secret that MUH operates way above capacity year in and year out and this unit will be crucial in helping the hospital deal with its capacity issues.

"I want to commend the staff at MUH for the work that they do, and I hope this modular unit will help alleviate some of the pressure that they are under.

"It is a shame we had to wait for a pandemic to get the unit, but it is great to finally see it happening and it is very welcome news,” she concluded.
