Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Annual Overview Report on the Regulation of Designated Centres for Older People 2013: HIQA

10:20 am

Mr. Phelim Quinn:

We take all information we receive seriously. The information would go to the relevant case holder or inspector for the facility, who makes an assessment of the information and, sometimes, follows through to clarify any issues that need to be clarified regarding it. Then the inspector approaches the facility with the information or triggers an inspection if the information raises concerns about the quality of care in the centre.
