National Ambulance Service to meet with Connemara campaign group

Galway Bay fm newsroom - The National Ambulance Service will meet with a delegation from the Connemara Ambulance Crisis Group today. (Tuesday 26/9)

The group has been campaigning since October 2014 to get an adequate ambulance service in north west Connemara.

Members of the group say that there could be delays of up to 4 hours from the call out time to the arrival of an ambulance for the region.

There are two ambulance stations in Connemara – in Clifden and Carraroe, which are sometimes called into the city to assist with emergencies.

The group says this leaves the Connemara area exposed with no cover in their absence.

A delegation is due to meet with representatives of the National Ambulance Service in Dublin today.
