Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Regulation of Nursing Homes and Development of a New Model of Care for Older People: Discussion
Dr. Kathleen MacLellan:
The first thing is to go back to the fact that the level of community transmission has been one of the biggest single indicators of the number of nursing home outbreaks that have been seen. We have brought with us the chair of the expert panel, which has provided us with significant learning across the Covid pandemic, and these are the recommendations on moving forward that have been progressing, so it might be useful if Professor Kelleher had the opportunity to speak about those lessons learned.
