Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank our two witnesses most sincerely, not just for their evidence this evening, but for everything they have done. They have spent a large amount of time away from their families working on behalf of women like me, my daughter and people who use the service and want, need and deserve to have confidence in it. We can say "Thanks" for everything the witnesses have done, but that is...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: That is very disappointing in light of where we have come from. What has characterised this situation from the beginning up to the present is an unsubstantiated media report followed by repeated questioning by people like the witnesses, us and journalists and evidence then emerging. The hope is that the payment will be made, but people in the HSE cannot action it until they get a piece of...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: They would not have the wherewithal to do it. We will collectively try to do as much as we can. I read the Irish Cancer Society's report, but I would have known the situation anyway. If someone has to go off work at the time of the initial diagnosis, having to face additional charges is regrettable. I hope that we will be in a position to follow up on that. We will have an opportunity...

Louise O'Reilly: Were all such slides concordant?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: But there was no finding of inconsistency. When Ms Walsh asked questions, it became a "partial review". Before then, it was simply advised that the slides were concordant.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: That is something that I raised at this committee during our first session. For reasons that I will not go into now, I am someone who has had occasion to engage on a regular basis with the service. I know the limitations, because I asked my doctor and my doctor knew. Dr. Peter McKenna did not know, though. The first time I asked him, he gave an assessment of 10%. According to the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: That is a good point well made, particularly if we are to move towards a shift in culture in terms of open disclosure. We had to move in the Dáil towards that culture. As Mr. Teap will know, open disclosure was voted down but now enjoys full support. It is good that people are coming to this conclusion but there will have to be a massive cultural shift in the HSE. That will mean all...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: How many people are currently looking for an independent review? I fully respect the fact that the delegates may not know. I understand from talking to people involved that it is expensive and complicated to get the independent review done. Perhaps they could do with a bit of a hand in this regard. Have the delegates any idea of the number involved? There will be those who may not want...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Engagement with Patient Representatives on CervicalCheck and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Review Process (17 Dec 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: The only door open is the legal one. I can understand that people just want an answer. They are not necessarily looking for an issue. They are just looking for the truth and the small amount of closure that might bring.
