Flahive) who drew attention to the “deplorable” situation prevailing at the Porinta Hospital which was considered to be only a 110bed hospital but which contained 500 patients. Mr McKay said he found the ill-informed criticism very saddening coming as it did at times from staff members/ “outside” doctors and people who should generally be better informed about the hospttal.
