We recently discussed a damning report published by HIQA, which highlighted the dismal conditions in emergency departments around the country. It found lengthy wait times in several institutions, including one instance of a patient waiting 116 hours on a trolley.\n \nThis shocking figure didn\u2019t come as a surprise to Elaine Galvin \u2013who spent 60 hours in A&E last month and she told us her experience.
