Sláintecare Implementation: Centre for Health Policy and Management, Trinity College Dublin
Professor Steve Thomas:
Yes, we do. Part of Sláintecare was the development of some of that capacity through the transition fund in the early years. We also made special reference to the need for expanding hospital capacity along with the capacity review. They are key bottlenecks that need to be addressed. Having said that, one of the big pushes of Sláintecare is to move care out of the hospital arena and into primary and community care.
