Question:300 Mr. G. Mitchell asked the Minister for Health if he will have arrangements made to examine the facilities available at a hospital (details supplied) in Dublin 10 where older patients appear to regress, according to reports, in spite of the best efforts of the staff in view of the fact that there is a lack of stimulating facilities such as piped television, hall phones, a tea machine and other such facilities; if he will have this matter examined and ensure that resources which are tailored to the needs of older patients are made available; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
