Antrim Area Hospital remains under extreme pressure on Monday after it was forced to close its emergency department over the weekend for safety reasons.
On Saturday night, the hospital declared a major incident and issued a statement asking people to "not attend under any circumstances" after it had reached full capacity due to the number of patients needing to be admitted.
The Northern Health & Social Care Trust said the decision to close the ED was regrettable but it was the only safe response under the circumstances.
