Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Ambulance Response Times: Discussion

6:50 pm

Ms Laverne McGuinness:

Deputy McConalogue had a question on the incident in Donegal and our incident review policy. We have different responses depending on the particular incident and the level of seriousness right up to escalation to serious incident, which is at a national level. A review is being carried out outside of HSE western region and is being chaired by Dr. Cathal O'Donnell. That review will be concluded in April.
