Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

HSE National Service Plan 2022: Discussion

Mr. Liam Woods:

As an initial response on that, obviously Croom was a significant investment and that is now up and working well, thankfully - all four theatres. On overall investment in the mid-west there is strong investment going in community service to directly support UHL. The Deputy is aware, I am sure, there is a 96-bed block in process at UHL. The use of Ennis and Nenagh in support of UHL but also themselves is something we are committed to developing. We have already put services in Nenagh with that in mind. Those are contracted services supporting access to care, so there is a strong commitment to developing services across the region in both acute and community. I am not sure if Ms O'Connor wants to say anything about that. That is what I would say there.
