Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Current Issues Relating to Health Services for Cancer: Discussion

2:00 am

Professor Risteárd Ó Laoide:

We have set up an NCCP strategy plan for all health regions in the context of systemic therapy capacity. Dr. McCarthy, who was before this committee earlier, is Saolta's representative on that. We are bringing them together to create a plan for the capacity for systemic therapies.

In the context of An Teachta Daly's question on projections, we projected that we require a 70% increase in day beds. That will take us up to 2045.
