A Clare TD has slammed comments by the Health Minister praising a marginal reduction in trolley numbers over the St Brigid's weekend According to the HSE's Trolleygar report, there were 25% fewer patients waiting on trolleys at 8am after the Bank Holiday weekend, compared to same period last year. However, figures from the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation show University Hospital Limerick was actually more overcrowded this year, with 118 patients without a bed, even with the opening of the new 96 bed block. Shannon Sinn Féin Deputy Donna McGettigan has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan the Government should focus on action not back patting.

A campaign group is calling on the HSE to purchase lands suitable for the development of a new hospital in Ennis this month. It follows the publication of a new report by the Irish Nurses and Midwives Association which shows 1,991 patients were treated on trolleys in the region's main hospital in January. Although this is a reduction of 11% from January 2024, University Hospital Limerick has remained the most overcrowded facility since the opening of the first 96-bed block. Friends of Ennis Hospital Chairperson Angela Coll says the feeling of urgency to deliver a new hospital will diminish over the summer when trolley numbers inevitably decline.

National data shows overcrowding in U.S. hospitals has reached crisis levels, with roughly 90% of large hospital emergency departments operating at or above capacity. Here in Connecticut, we are consistently seeing this problem at most of our hospitals. We spoke about this with Senator and Doctor Jeff Gordon and shared the state's latest platform to address the problem.To access the new dashboard for CT hospital overcrowding data: https://overnight-boarding.solvedby.dev/

Now just ruins in the Cascade Mountains, Northern State Mental Hospital was once a large institute that sprawled several hundred acres. Overcrowding, mistreatment and heinous experiments would be conducted here and many people would breathe their last breath here.CREDITS & LINKSMUSIC PROVIDED BY:Bobby Mackey "Johanna”Destined to Fail "The Sin is Enough”                             "Eternal Struggle”KARA FUNDRAISER:http://spot.fund/CremationFundsForKaraMcCoyCOVER PICTURE:Wikimedia Commons:The Northern State Hospital was opened in May 1912 and closed in about 1976.

A massive plumbing failure at Montana's state prison revealed serious faults in the facility's infrastructure. Despite recent state investments, putting money into prison projects can be a hard sell.

It's claimed hospital overcrowding is contributing to dwindling blood supplies in the MidWest. The Irish Blood Transfusion Service is holding a clinic at the West County Hotel in Ennis from 4.50pm until 8.10pm this evening. At the beginning of this week, the IBTS delivered more blood to local hospitals than any other day in its history. Broadford based Donor Recruitment Executive Alex O'Connor says the level of pressure on the healthcare system is telling.

Reports about conditions in the country's prisons have highlighted severe overcrowding, poor mental health support and staff shortages. Earlier in the week Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan told us that fifteen hundred new prison spaces will be provided over the next four to five years.

The Midwest Hospital Campaign has hit out at comments from the Health Minister suggesting University Hospital Limerick is managing overcrowding well. Speaking in relation to the winter surge in hospital presentations nationwide, Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has claimed some facilities are "managing patient flow" better than others, and has singled out Cork and Galway as having "consistent pressures". She also said UHL's process isn't something she "could really ever criticise" and that the hospital is "doing so well" while admitting there remains a "bed capacity issue". Midwest Hospital Campaign co-founder Hilary Tonge believes the minister is out of touch with the reality on the ground in this region.

The Minister for Health Jennifer Carroll McNeill has conceded that people in the regions are having to wait longer for a bed then patients in Dublin.

The Minister for Health is being encouraged to establish timelines and costings for measures intended to ease the overcrowding crisis at the region's main hospital once the Dáil resumes. Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill announced in December that the Government has accepted all three of HIQA's recommendations regarding alleviating hospital overcrowding in the Midwest. These are the expansion of capacity at University Hospital Limerick, the extension of the UHL campus to a second nearby site and the development of a new hospital with an emerency department in the region. Lahinch-based Patient Advocate on HSE Midwest's Programme Improvement Board John Wall says people need specifics as soon as possible.

Following the publication of the Criminal Law and Civil Law yesterday, the Government has set out plans to address criminality. Some of the focus has been placed on the disclosure of counselling records in sexual assault trials, and measures to address overcrowding in prisons.To discuss this, Ciara is joined by Brian Mahon, Political Correspondent with the Irish Daily Mail, Paul Lawless, Aontú TD for Mayo, and Cliona Sadlier, Executive Director with Rape Crisis Network Ireland.

Beyond The Bars is a series of stories, as told by a former inmate, highlighting one of failures of mass incarceration - prison gangs.  Stories he wasn't able to share - until now - an eye opening, riveting peek behind the razor wire.  Part 1 is now available.Overcrowding, inadequate management of prisons, and lack of resources (nationwide) creates an environment where the "convict code" (informal rules for survival) is insufficient for safety. Where lack of effective rehabilitation, social isolation, and influence can take hold of people entering the prison system causing them to focus on in-prison survival rather than self-improvement. When people are thrown away to fend for themselves, without institutional support, they're forced to find ways to survive, and unfortunately gangs are there to fill that void. This series is about navigating and avoiding prison gang culture, and survival. You can read more about Bobby and prison reform on our website:   notesfromthepen.com  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@notesfromthepen9604Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CJYuOh4pKxa/?igshid=y8lo9kbdifvq   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bobbyb.l.a.c.k1X: https://twitter.com/NotesFromThePenBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/notesfromthepen.bsky.socialIntro and Outro music created just for Notes From The Pen by PJ Trofibio and Jeff Quintero and used with permission.

The Mansfield Reformatory in Ohio wasn't meant to be just another prison. It was built like a castle, a grand gothic structure that looked more like a church than a jail.The big idea was to reform young men — give them a trade, some moral guidance, and send them back into the world as better citizens.But, what started as a shining vision of redemption turned into something very different. Overcrowding, brutality, desperate suicides and cruel punishments twisted the dream into a nightmare. Behind those walls, men lost their minds, their lives, and some say, their souls.From tragic deaths and dark legends to the ghostly echoes that still linger in the cell blocks, Mansfield is now known as one of the most haunted places in America. Join us on this episode of the True Hauntings Podcast as we take you inside the castle that promised salvation but delivered only suffering.

New York City's next mayor could decide whether to dramatically raise the minimum wage. Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani wants to double it to $30 an hour, while independent candidate Andrew Cuomo proposes $20. Policy experts are divided on how the increases would affect workers and businesses. Meanwhile, overcrowding is worsening in the city's juvenile detention centers, with some teens reportedly sleeping in classrooms and common areas. And the City Council is holding hearings this week on the future of Hart Island, New York's public cemetery, which could reach capacity by 2030

Suggestions that planning delays could be too much of an obstacle for a new MidWest hospital have been rubbished by a West Clare Councillor. It follows indications that HIQA is prioritising either the expansion of University Hospital Limerick or extension of its campus instead. In the regulator's landmark review of emergency capacity in the MidWest, it highlighted that a project feasibility risk assessment would have to be carried out to see if building a new facility elsewhere is possible. Doonbeg Fianna Fáil Councillor Rita McInerney believes its the only viable solution.

A Utah lawmaker is proposing an idea to start providing cell phones to lower-level offenders to ease overcrowding in local jails. According to data, nearly forty percent of people booked in their jails are for warrants. Public Defender and Utah Representative Grant Miller says that most of these cases are due to confusion about which court to appear in. He joins the show to discuss.

Please Follow us on: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠! In this episode of Kimberly's Italy, Kimberly and Tommaso discuss topics from tourism's impact on the Dolomite mountains to online travel scams and cybersecurity issues. Key Points: Summer in Italy: Italians love the summer season for the outdoor activities like festivals, concerts, and dining. Many Italians consider summer their favorite season since they love the sun, the beach and swimming. Over-Tourism in the Dolomites: Mass tourism is impacting the Dolomite Mountains. Overcrowding is causing damage to private lands, leading to disputes between landowners and tourism groups. Farmers started charging fees to access paths on their property to make a point, and a cry for help. AI and Travel Planning: YouTube is facing a rise in AI-generated content, or “slop,” affecting travel information. AI-generated videos are tricking tourists into visiting non-existent places. There have been instances of AI scams causing disappointment for travelers. It's important to double-check travel information found online. Cybersecurity - Juice Jacking: Juice jacking is a threat where malware is embedded in public USB ports. Travelers are advised not to use airport USB chargers to avoid malware infections. The use of portable power chargers is recommended. Public Wi-Fi networks in airports can be unsecured and targeted by hackers. Final Thoughts: Don't be discouraged from the extra amount of travel planning due to unreliable information since it will be worth the effort when you are finally in bel'italia! Be prepared and informed about the latest developments with AI and misleading imagery.

Overcrowding at the Louvre by 102.9 The Hog

It's a near-constant drumbeat in many hunting circles. The public land is just too crowded. It's a blanket statement tossed around, at least partially, to blame folks like me for promoting public land whitetail hunting too much. It's also a good statement to use if you want to explain away how you didn't fill a tag last year. It's also, in some areas, true. At least at certain points of the season, it's true. But overcrowding is subjective. The...
