Feighan
welcomes visit of Health Minister next month to officially open new €6m
Endoscopy Unit at Roscommon Hospital
Senator Frank Feighan has welcomed the
confirmation that Health Minister Simon Harris will officially open the new €6m
Endoscopy Unit at Roscommon Hospital on Thursday, September 8th.
“I’m delighted that Minister Harris has accepted
my invitation to formally open the Endoscopy Unit, which is already
operational.
“This 14,000 square foot state-of-the-art unit
will become a diagnostic centre for the whole Western region.
“It is facilitating a range of scope procedures
for patients, including colonoscopies, and the new unit will perform three
times as many endoscopy procedures at the hospital than previously.
“This multi-million euro investment ensures that
the number of patients treated in Roscommon will continue to rise and add
substantially to the general increase in activity at the hospital.
“I gave a commitment to secure significant
investment for Roscommon Hospital and the Endoscopy Suite is part of a €20m
investment earmarked for the hospital.”
