NINETY people from Donegal have now been treated at Altnagelvin since the flooding disaster in Letterkenny last Friday.
The NHS there says those treated come from the north and east of the county and have been treated for a whole range of illnesses.
Geraldine McKay, director of acute services with the Western Trust, said: “Staff are coping admirably at Altnagelvin. They are very busy but are coping well.
“We had to bring in some additional staff over the weekend.
“People have stepped up to the mark since we found out about the incident on Friday.
“It’s not clear how the costs will be recouped. Our priority is the patients and that they’re treated properly.”
