Cappagh Hospital - WiFi?

Skinfull · 2012-01-23 17:52:07

Hey guys, this might be the wrong forum for this question but couldn't find a better place... My sister is being admitting to Cappagh for what will most likely be a long term stay (5 weeks +) and she is dreading being offline for so long. I said I would give her my ipad for the duration but I cant find any info on the site…

Does any one know if they have WiFi or network access for patients?

None of the hospitals offer it for patients. I'd suggest getting her a dongle.
