Minister Christian says work is also underway to deal with winter demand
The health minister says her department is actively exploring ways to increase capacity at the Emergency Department.
Claire Christian confirmed the Department of Health and Social Care wants to reduce waiting times without having an adverse impact on other services.
Work is also underway to ensure the health service is ready for increased demand over winter.
Minister Christian says protecting those who are frail will be among the priorities:
Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital closure 'inconvenient' but 'significant issues' need to be fixed
Four local authorities looking for by-election candidates
Reinstatement of home births 'remains at top of agenda' for Manx Care
Weekend sailings at risk
