Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Ambulance Services, Recruitment and Retention of Personnel, and Response Times: Discussion
Professor Cathal O'Donnell:
We were integrally involved with them. It started with a pilot at Mallow General Hospital in north Cork. We designed that pilot in conjunction with colleagues in Mallow and we were centrally involved in then introducing those protocols in the mid-west. We would support them going into other parts of the country where there are medical assessment units. It is good for patients, hospitals and the NAS.
