Summary
A Clare senator says there's "merit" in a proposal for an air ambulance base in Clare. The call has been made by the Friends of Ennis Hospital campaign group following the airlifting of a GAA player from the Loop Head Peninsula to University Hospital Limerick last week. According to HSE data, one fifth of air ambulance call-outs nationwide come from the Midwest region. Speaking in the Seanad, Ennistymon Senator Martin Conway says many parts of West Clare are simply too far away the Dooradoyle facility.
