Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Hospital Doctor Retention and Motivation Project: Discussion

Dr. Niamh Humphries:

They know that they could deliver better care if the resources were there and they know that when they worked in Australia, America or Canada they could get X, Y and Z for a patient within a certain amount of time whereas here, they are just joining the end of a waiting list. While they wait, they know their patients will get worse. It is very difficult to be the public face of that health system, which is very much under strain at the moment.
