Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Cardiovascular Health, Stroke and Heart Attack: Discussion
Mr. Chris Macey:
It is a resourcing issue, but it is also about planning. If you have a strategy and you have signed it off, you should really deliver it. As I said in my opening statement, it is actually cheaper to deliver the strategy and spend the money on it than not to because not delivering it means longer stays in hospital and more nursing home places being required. The cost of that is huge.
