Letterkenny ED Opening

The Minister for Health, Dr. James Reilly, TD officially opened the new Emergency Department at Letterkenny General Hospital in Co. Donegal on Friday 22 March 2013.

The new ED offers a modern patient focused environment for patients who require emergency care and replaces a very cramped facility which was not fit for purpose.

The ED has an expanded Resuscitation Room; additional majors’ cubicles; a minor injuries area; a separate children’s area and an area for those with acute mental health problems. The new department provides a safer, modern environment for staff and a more comfortable welcoming environment for patients and their families.
