Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare: General Practice in Disadvantaged Areas (21 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: Is there scope for improvement if new technology and near patient testing were introduced? There has been decades of under investment and there are more reasons that people cannot access hospitals. Is there a role in GP practices in disadvantaged areas, specifically to offset some of the problems created by delays in accessing hospitals, as outlined by Dr. Gibney? In terms of a higher...

Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare: General Practice in Disadvantaged Areas (21 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: Dr. Delap says it is not used. Is that because it is not equipped or because there is no need for it?

Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare: General Practice in Disadvantaged Areas (21 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: It is about time and resources. If one had them, one could attend a nursing home for a half day and have those conversations and it would be significantly less likely that a person would opt to transfer to an emergency department, which might not be the most appropriate place for him or her. One cannot necessarily expect a locum to make that decision if he or she-----

Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare: Relationship between Primary Care and Secondary Care (21 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: I have two brief questions. Reference was made to the 5% of patients who require chronic disease management that GPs cannot offer and who would ideally be managed in a hospital with high-tech equipment where complex work is performed. Do the witnesses know or are data available on the level of chronic disease management taking place inappropriately, as they might say but possibly because...

Select Committee on the Future of Healthcare: Relationship between Primary Care and Secondary Care (21 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: In response to Professor Courtney, I recall the meeting in Farmleigh well and have a somewhat different recollection of where the battle lines were drawn.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Charities Regulatory Authority (21 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: I wish to expand on a point made by Senator Mullen and I may use a more concrete example such as a suicide prevention charity which is established, regulated and everyone in it is doing what they are supposed to do. They are all good people and are all in compliance but they weigh in on a debate about fishing rights off the west coast. This would not be an area which directly concerns that...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Charities Regulatory Authority (21 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: I am keen to expand on the point. My question relates to trustees. In my previous life as a union organiser I had many dealings with people acting as pensions trustees. It became harder to get anyone interested to put their hands up to become trustees. As Mr. Farrelly has just described, they took the view that their necks were on the block in the event of questions being asked. In the...

Order of Business (27 Sep 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: My question follows on from a question asked by an Teachta Adams. Can the Taoiseach give a date to the nurses with regard to the implementation of the agreement that they have with the Department of Health?
