NI Health: Daisy Hill to lose emergency surgery for good under new proposal
"The recent investment from the Department of Health of over £9million to upgrade the electrical infrastructure at Daisy Hill is another very welcome commitment to the future of our hospital, offering great potential for further development of services," she continued.
Last February, Southern Trust's previous chief executive Shane Devlin said the removal of emergency general surgery at Daisy Hill was a short-term plan designed to keep patients safe. SDLP assembly member for Newry and Armagh, Justin McNulty, said at the time that frontline staff and patients were "fearful" services could be downgraded at the hospital while Unite said it planned to "fight a stronger fight" to protect services at Daisy Hill.
The Southern Health Trust says a number of online information events on the proposal to permanently move surgery to Craigavon will be held in February and March.
