Neasa Hourigan

Ceist:

901. Deputy Neasa Hourigan asked the Minister for Health if he will identify all grades of HSE staff based in a location (details supplied) who received Covid-19 vaccinations in January 2021 ahead of acute and long-stay patients and nursing staff in St. Stephen's Psychiatric Hospital, Glanmire; the time lag between the commencement of vaccinations for staff at the location and the later commencement of vaccinations for patients and nursing staff in St. Stephen's Hospital; the level of HSE management that decided on these staff cohorts receiving vaccines ahead of patients and nursing staff from St. Stephen's Hospital; if primarily office-based staff from other bases within HSE south were scheduled for vaccinations ahead of patients and nursing staff from St. Stephen's Hospital; if so, the grades of staff prioritised; the way HSE management responded to representations made on behalf of St. Stephen's Hospital patients and nursing staff during a period of uncertainty in January 2021 regarding the vaccination schedule for these latter groups; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the deputy directly.
