Sinn Féin MLA Linda Dillon has called on the Health Minister to work closely with families, carers and patients of Muckamore Abbey Hospital.
Speaking after the minister signalled a short extension to the original June closure date, the party’s social care spokesperson said:
”The work to resettle patients from Muckamore Abbey Hospital must continue at pace.
“Vulnerable patients and their families deserve the clarity and security of a permanent, supportive environment.
“The Health Minister must now work closely with families and carers to establish a definitive closure date for Muckamore.
“And he should continue to update the Assembly on the progress to ensure transparency, accountability and safety for patients.”
