Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on Covid-19 in Nursing Homes

Mr. Tadhg Daly:

At the outset of the pandemic, we believed there was a blind spot in terms of residential care for the older population. That is still the case. History will speak for itself in that regard. Our relationship with the system has been greatly enhanced. We do not have a direct relationship with NPHET but we are working closely with Dr. MacLellan, who is a member of NPHET, and we work with other members as individuals. However, we do not directly engage with NPHET.
