Ceisteanna (93)

Paudge Connolly

Ceist:

114 Mr. Connolly asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children her views on whether the transportation of seven renal dialysis patients from the Cavan catchment area (details supplied) represents appropriate value for money; if better value for money can be obtained, both socially and economically, by extending the twilight shift to accommodate these patients at Cavan General Hospital’s renal dialysis unit on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m., representing an additional 12 hours; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Responsibility for the provision of services at Cavan General Hospital rests with the North Eastern Health Board. My Department has, therefore, requested the chief executive officer of the board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply directly to him.
