Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Ambulance Services: Discussion

Mr. Robert Morton:

We can estimate it but it would only be an estimate. When we look at projections for future demand, we generally take a ten-year look so we have looked back at the trajectory from 2017 and are trying to project that up to 2027. Over that period, we estimate that there will be a growth rate of 107%. If we extrapolate from that, it would suggest we need 2,000 extra staff.
