Update on Covid-19 in Nursing Homes
Neasa Hourigan (Dublin Central, Green Party) | Oireachtas source
We had a session on vaccines on Friday. I am trying to get a sense of what the interface with the information technology system is, especially in nursing homes as it relates to the private and public versions. I am asking for an overview. I am specifically interested in the fact that we have many staff on leave. We might have new service users. What is the access and interface between nursing homes and the vaccine IT system over the coming months? Will it pick up people who might have been missed in the first round? How is the HSE referring people to that? Could someone give me an overview of how that is happening?
