The Children's Remembrance Day Committee, University Hospital Galway is inviting parents and their families who have experienced the death of a child before birth, shortly after birth or at a later stage to remember their loved ones in a special Mass of Remembrance, which will take place on Sunday 22 May in the Galway Cathedral.
The theme of this year’s mass is ‘Love and Mercy’ and will include a talk from guest speaker Dr Dan Murphy.
The Bealtaine Festival celebrates its 21st birthday this year and runs nationwide throughout the month of May. Galway University Hospitals Arts Trust has a series of events programmed for older patients in Galway University Hospitals, Units 5 and 6 in Merlin Park and Roscommon University Hospital. A variety of arts events are scheduled including theatre shows, art workshops and music performances.
We welcome the commitment to the construction of a new Emergency Department at University Hospital Galway reiterated in the “Programme for Partnership Government” published yesterday.
The building of this urgently needed Emergency Department remains the capital priority for the Saolta University Health Care Group.
Visiting restrictions will be eased at University Hospital Galway. From 4pm today (May 10th 2016) visiting restrictions at the Hospital will only apply to St Enda’s Ward and St Teresa’s Ward. The hospital is asking the public to comply with visitor restrictions on these wards as it continues to manage suspected cases of the Vomiting Bug (Norovirus).
