Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Impact of High Levels of Covid-19 on the Health System: Discussion
Dr. Vida Hamilton:
Patient care is directed on an individual basis but I would note that we have, as of yesterday, more than 330 patients on advanced oxygen-supply devices outside of the ICU. They have single organ failure. They are being supported outside of the intensive care unit but they are doing very well. We are providing ICU outreach to support the ones that are flagged by the respiratory teams to critical care. Does that answer the Senator's question?
