Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Staffing Levels in the HSE: Fórsa

9:30 am

Ms Linda Kelly:

That and also the feedback in this regard. I say this particularly because several of the protests have been outside hospitals in recent weeks. Feedback from hospital management has been that vacancies that have arisen in 2024, despite everything being fine and dandy there according to the HSE spin, are also going up the line to be replaced. There is no feedback coming back and no new people coming in.
