It was announced this afternoon that The Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation (INMO) has secured 90 nursing and midwifery posts in the Midland Regional Hospital, Mullingar following negotiations with local management.
The Organisation held a lunchtime protest in January to highlight continued overcrowding and poor staffing levels at the hospital when the numbers of patients on trolleys, both in the ED and throughout the hospital, were at record levels. Subsequently members voted 92% in favour of a work to rule.
