Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Workforce Planning in Acute and Community Care Settings: Discussion
Professor Alan Irvine:
We have many young mothers and fathers in the consultants' body as well. It is a point well made by Ms Ní Sheaghdha but I have colleagues who come in and do ward rounds at 5 a.m. so they can go back and share the childcare with their partners. It affects female workers in every discipline, including medicine, and consultants.
