The hospital is under significant pressure with many patients requiring admission
Some 29 patients are on trolleys in Naas General Hospital.
There are 634 patients waiting on trolleys in hospitals across the country.
The Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation says 513 patients are waiting in emergency departments, a further 121 people are in wards elsewhere around hospitals.
40 patients are on trolleys in Tallaght University Hospital.
Wexford General Hospital currently doesn't have an emergency department because of fire damage.
Naas Hospital is warning that the Emergency Department (ED) continues to be under significant pressure with many patients requiring admission.
Where possible management at Naas General Hospital are asking patients with non-emergency conditions to seek assistance from other parts of the health service such as their local Pharmacist, GP, GP out of hours service, or a local injury unit.
Unfortunately, patients who are presenting at the ED in Naas General Hospital with non-urgent conditions are experiencing very long waiting times to be seen.
Any patient who needs emergency hospital care will be seen and Naas General Hospital would urge such patients not to delay attending the ED.
Do not delay in seeking medical attention if you suspect you are having a heart attack or stroke, please dial 999 or 112 in an emergency.
