We were also able to gain a valuable insight into the Southern Trust’s commitment to the long term future of Daisy Hill Hospital. Management and staff at the hospital are to be commended for their foresight in acquiring new state of the art technology to improve services at the hospital and create greater links between the hospital network in the Southern Trust area.”
