The Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation are holding their Annual Delegate Conference in the Fairways Hotel in Dundalk today.
Over 50 motions will be debated on safe staffing, cost-of-living, burnout, assaults. Emergency motions will be debated on cost-of-living measures.
The Minister for Health, Jennifer Carroll MacNeill, will address delegates, and Minister MacNeill joined us on The Agenda this morning to talk to us some more about this.
Minister Caroll MacNeill addressed the issue of overcrowding in Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda.
We also discussed the “scoping exercise” into convicted sex offender and former Louth hospital consultant Michael Shine, which is expected to take up to 16 weeks - Minister for Health Jennifer Carroll MacNeill told the Dáil this week that the total number of those impacted is believed to be “in the high hundreds and it ranges across a huge age span”.
We alsio discussed endometriosis care in Ireland, after our interview earlier this week with Amie Berns, who is now housebound as a result of the debilitating case of endometriosis that she is living with.
