Nurses at Mayo University Hospital’s ER will begin action Nov. 3 over staffing shortages, citing safety risks and unmet HSE guidelines.
Nurses at Mayo University Hospital’s emergency department, represented by the INMO, will begin industrial action on November 3, 2025, over staffing shortages.
The union says more than 10 full-time equivalent nurses are missing, with 28.5 additional staff needed to meet HSE safe staffing guidelines.
Persistent overcrowding and understaffing have raised patient safety concerns, and the union claims management has not adequately addressed the issue despite ongoing talks through the Workplace Relations Commission.
The action starts as a work-to-rule campaign, with possible strike escalation.
The HSE says it is filling vacancies and committed to resolving the matter through established processes.
