Inishowen x-ray services disrupted 01.05.08

X-RAY services at Carndonagh Community Hospital will be disrupted over the coming weeks, it's emerged.
Inishowen Senator Cecilia Keaveney said patients were currently unable to get an x-ray due to a staffing matter.
She said the x-ray facility at the local community hospital would be disrupted for at least a couple of weeks.
“The fact that a number of patients are not able to have x-rays in Carndonagh at present is an issue that has been brought to my attention," she said.

"I have contacted the HSE on the matter and they have informed me that they will endeavour to minimise disruption and if possible provide locum cover during this time." It is understood the disruption is due to staff illness.
Senator Keaveney said it was important that services to patients were maintained at the north Inishowen hospital.
"Indeed I look forward to the day when x-ray capacity may be available at our primary health centres, which would improve further the delivery of health service to our patients," added Senator Keaveney.
