"The Rotunda is still severely affected by the cyberattack on HSE IT systems. The attack has left us with no access to patient charts or details, clinic schedules and appointment details or emails. We have developed paper based systems where possible, which add additional strain on our resources. We are not currently able to contact any patients directly. In consideration of this, we are prioritising urgent care for our patients and extending our service changes and cancellations until Sunday 23rd May. The service changes for the week include; Outpatient maternity appointments and scans in Public, Private, and Semi-Private Clinics are cancelled for those who are less than 36 weeks gestation. Those 36 weeks and over, please come in for your appointment Gynaecology and Colposcopy - all outpatient appointments and procedures, and planned surgeries are cancelled. Paediatric outpatient appointments for babies older than two weeks are cancelled and will be rescheduled. For babies under 2 weeks, please come in if you have an appointment. Non-urgent appointments at the early pregnancy unit are cancelled, as well as physio and dietitian appointments. More details on other services can be found on https://rotunda.ie/ransomware-attack-update/ Our Emergency and Assessment Unit is open for anyone who has any concerns about their pregnancy. We have a helpline set up on 01 211 9351 (Staffed 9-8 Mon-Fri, 10-6 Sat/Sun) with midwives able to answer any queries you may have about our services currently."
