Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Management of Hospital Waiting Lists and Insourcing and Outsourcing of Treatment: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Bernard Gloster:

The only insourcing that we would plan to do that would be what we call legitimate insourcing would be overtime, which we would offer to our staff. Many of them are not interested in that. It is different from a hospital because it is in the community and it is harder to see. Some outsourcing companies may hire our staff at the weekend, which comes back closer to insourcing. That can happen and does happen.
