Members of the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation at several hospitals across Ireland are set to stage lunchtime protests today.
The unionised staff across the country are engaged in a work-to-rule with an all-out stoppage set to hit the public health service next Wednesday (14th Oct) and again on the 21st of Oct.

- Cork University Hospital
- St Vincent’s University Hospital
