Emergency general surgery at South West Acute Hospital is 'fragile', WesternHSCTrust says, with half of the six funded surgeon positions vacant
A lack of staff surgeons at the South West Acute Hospital means the service is 'fragile', the trust saidA decision has not been made on the future of emergency general surgery at the South West Acute Hospital in Enniskillen, the Western Trust said on Monday.
"I accept it must plan for every eventuality and I expect to see a comprehensive plan. Constructive engagement is vitally important as the way forward is explored."Health Minister Robin Swann said the news would be of serious concern to the Enniskillen community The issue is not money but the workforce and the challenge of recruiting and retaining experienced consultant surgeons to provide a service, the trust said.
She added that it was very important to note that no decision was made at Monday's meeting and no recommendation came from the trust board. "No matter the outcome, however, it is important to stress that elective surgery at the hospital will continue and there would be minimal to no impact on the other existing services at SWAH."It appears that the Western Trust has made up its mind about the future of the service but is letting the public down gently.
