Pauline Tully

Ceist:

852. Deputy Pauline Tully asked the Minister for Health if HSE homecare staff and staff working for companies providing homecare that are contracted by the HSE are fully equipped with personal protective equipment which will enable them to continue providing a service in cases in which a person with complex care needs or their family carer have tested positive for Covid-19; his views on whether such a service should continue to be provided when the staff are fully equipped with personal protective equipment; if the same work criteria are applied to HSE homecare staff and staff working for companies providing homecare that are contracted by the HSE as is applied to HSE hospital staff with regard to the provision of services to persons who have contracted Covid-19; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is an operational matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the deputy directly, as soon as possible.
