Only took 15 years to wake up and state the obvious , 😂
€98.7bn in tax receipts this year.
And the hospitals still shit.
It is so confusing.
But as i was reminded by the community on here, we are number 6 worldwide for healthcare
It’s not UHL for once!
Yes. But the really important thing is to remember any year now Dublin will have the most expensive hospital in the world (not the best, just the most expensive). The rest of the country doesn’t really matter when it comes to the HSE.
The population has risen 17.8% in 10 years, this is obviously going to put a strain on services.
Massive growth in population without corresponding growth infrastructure. What do people expect?
Not to be contrarian. But the VAST majority of those waiting ridiculous hours should not have come to A&E in the first place.
I spent a few hours in Vincent’s a&e recently and the care I got was genuinely great. I arrived by ambulance, was deemed urgent and, in the 5 hours I was there, got bloods, cat scan, ecg etc all done super quickly and kept getting checked on by the doctor who was treating me. Was in a trolley in a corridor the whole time place was crazy busy and chock full of drunk people. I feel like if you are waiting in a&e for hours it’s because you probably don’t need to be there that badly.
the fact that these patients were „on the wall“ for 8 hours indicates that patients aren’t being properly triaged in the field-see-these are not true medical emergencies.
