No one better than Deputy Cahill. Fair play to him.
I will focus on the holistic care in St. Brigid's itself, and public and private nursing home care. It was referenced in the opening statement that there are 147 HSE beds across four units and 522 private nursing home beds across 13 private providers. Is their use at full capacity at present? How has it been since the restrictions eased? That obviously meant a return to somewhat normal levels.
