Dr. Sara Burke:

It is, but it is really hard to change. We often talk about the health system as like being on an enormous aircraft carrier where it is really hard to change direction. We are changing the direction in the right way but much more needs to be done. There are key building blocks of governance, digital health, workforce, continued political leadership and drive, coherence at the top and the Department and the HSE reforming that need to be addressed. There is lots to be done to deliver on Sláintecare but maybe my colleagues would be less harsh in their appraisals.
