Galway Bay fm newsroom - The HSE is to reinstate the children's dental services at Portiuncula Hospital in Ballinasloe.
That's according to Councillor Aidan Donohue, who says the clinic will be fitted with new equipment before it's reopened in the new year.
Dentistry services were suspended at the hospital by the HSE this time last year due to staffing shortages.
Referrals were made to Loughrea and Merlin Park - but the HSE always maintained it intended to eventually restore services at Portiuncula.
Councillor Donohue says this reinstatement will be important to families in East Galway. Tune in to Galway Bay fm news on the hour for more...
