On the type of staff that certain hospitals attract, I assume Professor Broe meant that one wants to be working at the cutting edge of one's profession if one is ambitious and wants a career. I am assuming that a progressive medical person would prefer to be working at a level 4 hospital where there would be a massive throughput of cases and where he or she would be exposed to all they expect in their career. I imagine that the professor was not saying there are worse quality staff when one goes down the hospital levels.

Do the community health organisations and the Limerick hospital group overlap perfectly?
