The Clifden District Hospital was established in 1935.
Since then it has served a wide area of Connemara from Leenane in the north to Carna in the south of the district.
A message from the HSE on Friday that the remaining four patients, who are in the older age group, must leave the Hospital by this Monday has sparked fears that the end is in sight for the hospital.
