Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Sláintecare Implementation: Regional Health Areas Advisory Group
Seán Kyne (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
On autonomy, the aim is that the CEO, for example, of an RHA would work in collaboration with the CEO of a regional group and the community healthcare group. Will the CEO be able to say, "Hold on, I do not agree with what you are doing there and this is the approach that I believe should be taken" or is it a case of engaging amicably and finding a solution? Is there a need sometimes to say, "Hold on, I do not like what is happening and we need whatever"? How does Mr. Kearns see that operating without creating more antagonism? I agree that it is the right approach and it is necessary but I am concerned that there is collaboration versus direction.
