Thu 03 Mar 2010Statement by Minister for Health Mary Harney
The central and over-riding priority in all aspects of health care, in every hospital, at every meeting and in every last detail of administration is the interest of patients.
Patients’ interests and standards of care must come first. For that reason the review of unread X-rays is being given top priority by the hospital. The investigation of circumstances that gave rise to this situation will be fully addressed through the independent review announced by the HSE.
