While the hospital insists continuity of care is protected and no patients will be affected, it’s now under scrutiny as the only maternity hospital where this breach occurred. Meanwhile, other hospitals like Coombe and National Maternity Hospital confirm their consultants are fully compliant, and some hospital leaders are pushing for exceptions to preserve patient choice — but for now, the HSE’s rule stands firm.
