View answerThe purpose of the Review of Acute Hospital Services in the Health Service Executive South is to identify the appropriate model for acute service provision in the HSE South and to recommend how best to reconfigure acute hospital services in Cork and Kerry to deliver on this model.
The HSE has advised my Department that the final draft of the report has been submitted to the National Hospitals Office by the consultants concerned. The report is expected to be submitted to the HSE Board shortly.
