Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Are the hospitals required to present the fact that that happened? That seems to be a serious thing to happen. Is the hospital management then held to account by the board? Does Mr. Breen have any oversight of that?

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: That is important, but it does not make any difference to the individual family for whom an intervention three or four hours earlier might have had a very different outcome for the rest of their lives. However, I appreciate the broader point Mr. Breen has made.

By the time of her graduation, she did not have the confidence to stand up from her seat to go to get her certificate. That is...
