The Ombudsman can examine complaints about the actions of a range of public bodies, including public hospitals. All hospitals providing public health services come within the Ombudsman’s remit. The Ombudsman can examine complaints about how hospital staff carry out their everyday administrative activities when providing public health services. These include complaints about delays or failing to take action. However, there are certain complaints that the Ombudsman cannot examine. These include complaints about: private health care regardless of where it is provided and clinical judgment by the HSE (diagnoses or decisions about treatment Is the Ombudsman independent? Yes. The Ombudsman is independent and impartial when examining complaints. 1 What can I complain to the Ombudsman about? You can complain about your experience in dealing with a hospital.

  • Urgent and Emergency Care Provision in Ireland
    Urgent and emergency care provision in Ireland What is urgent and emergency care? Urgent and emergency care consists of all the services which contribute to the management of people when immediate care is sought for a health condition along with the processes in place for referring patients between services. When patients need immediate care they can enter the health system through a range of services and will often use more than one. Ideally these services would be highly co-ordinated to ensure the time to definitive care is reduced and waste such as inappropriate use of emergency departments is avoided. Current provision in Ireland A wide range of services, public and private, provide emergency and urgent care in Ireland. The services within the emergency and urgent care system (EUCS) include General Practice (GP) (including out-of-hours GP co-operatives), emergency departments (EDs), urgent care centres, acute medical units (AMUs), minor injury units, ambulance services (provided by Dublin Fire Brigade and the National Ambulance Service), and pharmacies. When patients need immediate care, they can enter the health system through a range of services and will often use more than one in a single episode of illness. For example, they may phone an out-of-hours GP, be transferred by ambulance to an ED and be admitted to hospital. The combination of these services are defined as an EUCS. The provision of effective emergency and urgent care is critically dependent on all elements of the EUCS of a healthcare system (figure 1). A well-performing EUCS should improve the chances of survival in a patient with an emergency condition and an urgent condition should ideally be managed by a well- performing EUCS without admission to an inpatient bed.

    By email to billy.kelleher@oireachtas.ie 15th January, 2015 Mr. Billy Kelleher, T.D. Dáil Éireann, DUBLIN 2. Re/ Parliamentary Question No 1073/16 “To ask the Minister for Health his response to the master of the Rotunda Hospital setting down conditions for its relocation to Connolly Hospital; and if he will make a statement on the matter” and Parliamentary Question No 1076/16 “To ask the Minister for Health if the relocation of the Rotunda Hospital is conditional on the upgrading of services at Connolly Hospital akin to what is currently available at the Mater Hospital; and if he will make a statement on the matter” Dear Deputy Kelleher, The Health Service Executive has been requested to reply directly to you in the context of the above Parliamentary Questions which you submitted to the Minister for Health for response. The Rotunda Hospital is a voluntary hospital with its own board of Governors providing maternity, neonatology and gynaecology services to women and families. It is part of the RCSI Hospitals Group and the Group has agreed that it is the clinical leader in providing maternity and gynaecology services across the various hospitals within the Group, particularly in Drogheda, Cavan and Monaghan. The Department of Health recommended that the best site for co-location of The Rotunda Hospital with an adult hospital, in line with best international practice, is at the campus of the Connolly Hospital in Blanchardstown. The campus has both greenfield and brownfield space to allow the development of a number of new healthcare buildings and facilities and the redevelopment of some existing services.

Throughout the year, work continued towards compliance of both operational and governance matters. Following considerable work by the Executive Management Team and members of staff, the Strategic Plan for 2014–2016 was presented to, and fully endorsed and approved by the Board in February 2014. I believe the plan reflects the values and mission of The Rotunda Hospital. Implementation of the plan continues.
