HSE Questioned Over CUH Helipad
There are calls for the HSE to clarify its plans for providing helipad facilities for Cork University Hospital. It comes after a medevac helicopter had to land on a pitch at Bishopstown GAA club despite assurances from the HSE earlier this year that a 24-hour helipad would be operational at Highfield rugby club within weeks. CUH has been without a helipad for almost a decade after an emergency department was built on the former helipad. Local representatives want the HSE to explain why the Highfield site is not ready yet.
