Co Fermanagh residents vented their anger at representatives from the Western Trust on Monday in the first of a series of events as part of a public consultation into the removal of emergency surgery services at the South West Acute Hospital.
In a confrontational meeting at the Lakeland Forum, campaigners and local residents frequently took the Trust to task over its decision to withdraw the service.
Trust chief executive Neil Guckian also admitted that it would be ‘challenging’ to see the service resume at the Enniskillen hospital, despite continuing to refer to the suspension of services as a ‘temporary, unplanned change’.
