Kathleen Lynch (Cork North Central, Labour)

Is consideration being given to people who do not require hospitalisation for surgical procedures when stress tests are carried out? I have found that such people have to stay longer in hospital than other patients.

Cork University Hospital is probably at the higher end of the list of bed costs because it is that type of hospital. How many are occupying beds in the hospital who could instead be in rehabilitation and what is the position for HSE south?
