Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Closure of Owenacurra Centre: Engagement with HSE

Mr. Mark Kane:

I gave the figure of 2,000 sq. m. for the gross internal floor area. If we were to start bringing residents into a multistorey accommodation it would be far from optimal for a number of our residents. As Dr. O'Brien has already pointed out, a number of our residents need continuing care.
