Topical Issue Debate
Mental Health Services Provision
2:00 pm
Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
For the information of other Deputies, I have worked in an emergency department. An emergency department is a place where one is at risk of assault and it is a place where staff do get assaulted by violent people and by drunks, and I turned up for work on every occasion that I worked in an emergency department. However, procedures are put in place to minimise risk and deal with assaults where they occur.
Again, I cannot comment on the Rosalie unit as it was not specifically mentioned in the request for this debate either.
