Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Workforce Planning in the Health Sector: Discussion

Dr. Rita Doyle:

As already stated, there has been no allowances for the feminisation of the medical profession. In general, women do not tend to work full-time when their children are small. I have an assistant who works five sessions a week with me. She has small children and that is how she manages her life. These are very valuable people and we need to court them.
