Plan to reform health service hailed as ‘quietly revolutionary’
Managing director of Prospectus Strategy Consultants, Vincent Barton said the Report of the Commission on Patient Safety contained a number of challenging recommendations that would require “a massive cultural change” in the Irish healthcare system to be implemented effectively.
“The report is quietly revolutionary and is strongly critical of the deficiencies in the current hospital system. But one of the most crucial aspects of it is the strong recommendations that someone has to be held responsible for the quality of care provided,” he said.
