Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Annual Overview Report on the Regulation of Designated Centres for Older People 2013: HIQA

10:20 am

Mr. Phelim Quinn:

If it requires escalated regulatory action leading to some form of low level or high level enforcement action, we would take it through to that phase. It would be raised internally through the levels of management to me. In some instances in which we believe the information is of specific concern, we have case conferences. We would also contact external agencies if required and appropriate.
