Services at Shannondoc will resume as normal post Covid-19

A letter seen by tipperarylive.ie states that normality will return in due course

Shannondoc will resume to normal service once the Covid-19 pandemic has passed, tipperarylive.ie understands.


Services have changed at the out of hours GP service to deal with Covid-19, but a letter seen by us states that:
“A temporary consolidated Model of Service is being implemented by Shannondoc to operate from five Overnight Treatment Centres across the Mid West in Nenagh, Limerick city, Newcastlewest, Ennis and Miltown Malbay.
