Canney critical as new Community Nursing Unit in Tuam only "half open" one year later

The multi-million euro new Community Nursing Unit in Tuam is still only "half open" one year later - due to an ongoing issue between the HSE and HIQA. 

That's according to Deputy Sean Canney, who told the Dáil we need a "wake-up call" about how we're managing our health services. 

He also claimed that day centre services still haven't commenced at the unit either - because of an issue with a door. 

Independent Deputy Canney told Minister Mary Butler it isn't acceptable.
