Seanad debates

Thursday, 3 July 2003

A point which has emerged is that there seems to be lack of liaison between Temple Street Hospital and Crumlin Hospital. Temple Street Hospital has facilities for intensive care beds. It is reported in the newspapers today that a senior person in the hospital said if there was proper liaison between both hospitals, it might have been able to accommodate such a situation and the tragic death might not have happened. We cannot allow this to happen again. That is the reason I support Senator Henry. There is already a scarcity of nurses. This must be addressed or we will, regrettably, have more tragedies.
