A new report released by the Health Information and Quality Authority found that many health care services continue to be proportionally less resourced than others, despite increased investment during the Covid crisis.
While Irish hospitals adapted quickly to the pandemic, it found every service was under "extreme pressures" due to longstanding underlying problems in the health sector.
HIQA’s Head of Healthcare, Sean Egan said: “We found that good governance and leadership is the first line of defence when providing safe, high-quality and reliable healthcare, particularly against the backdrop of a global pandemic.” pic.twitter.com/wVZ5eYcYwM
