Written answers

At the outset of the pandemic, substantial work was carried out to develop a critical care capacity plan, a key part of which was the provision of training to nurses to allow them to provide support to critical care as required.  In order to ensure the Deputy receives a comprehensive answer, I have asked the HSE to respond directly to her with the information she has requested.
