Consultants seek meeting with Health Minister over hospital reorganisation The body representing hospital consultants is seeking a meeting with the Health Minister after he announced that almost 50 hospitals will be headed by six independent groups under plans Moncler Down Jacket Red BRANSON to reform Ireland s acute hospital system. James Reilly claimed the plan will modernise the health system and deliver safe and high quality care for patients across the country. No small hospital will close under the scheme, nhl jerseys but some will have specialist Moncler himalaya Down Men Jackets Blue services transferred to bigger facilities girls moncler coats while gaining more routine surgeries. The Irish Hospital Consultants Association is seeking a meeting with the minister and the health services management on the organisational arrangements and the resourcing of the plans. "The key issue is how resources and personnel are to be configured allowing the better delivery of health care to patients in a very difficult health environment," it said. "The establishment of hospital groups signals a fundamental modernisation of our health system organisation in line with best international practice," Mr Reilly said. "The new hospital groups, each with their own governance and management, have been designed so as to provide the optimal configuration for hospitals to deliver high quality, safe patient care which is cost effective and guarantees better outcomes for patients." Each group will have between six and 11 hospitals, depending on population and needs, and be centred around large teaching hospitals with links to universities. They will also have its own chief executive and five other senior officers who will be accountable for the each facility. There will be three in Dublin, including Dublin North East, headed moncler alpin jacket by Beaumont Hospital; Dublin Midlands led by St James s Hospital, and Dublin East led by the Mater Hospital. Cork University Hospital will head the South/South West group, with the West/North West led by University Hospital Galway and Midwest headed by the Mid Western Regional Hospital in Limerick. Professor John Higgins led a group of Moncler jackets sale down bea Belt Collar black international experts who devised the plan, which paves the way for the establishment of hospital trusts. "We have a wonderful opportunity to make a step change within the Irish hospital system," he said. "We need to draw down the enthusiasm, the expertise and the experience of our all our staff. Working together we can deliver real change." Health chiefs said each group of hospitals will work together as a single entity managed as one, providing acute care for patients across the region and integrating Moncler down jacket Men Hooded fur collar brown mens moncler jacket community and primary care. The Cabinet earlier approved the plans for the reorganisation of public hospitals, which Dr Reilly claimed will make them more efficient and accountable. He maintained there will be a need for smaller and larger hospitals to operate together and to Moncler marmelade Womens coats Belt Fur collar black maximise the amount of care delivered locally
