Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Delays in Accessing Scoliosis Treatment and Surgery: Discussion

Professor Damian McCormack:

Everybody loved it and was proud of the work. They still talk about it because people were motivated to do their best. They were not under the cosh or being clocked in and out. They were incentivised and not just by money; they knew if they worked hard, they could get out. The entire country needs that kind of incentivisation. It is being inhibited but we can identify those inhibitions and deal with them rationally, I am sure. For that reason I am hopeful for the health service. If it does not happen, I would be very pessimistic about everything.
