Varadkar tells health staff abroad come home

Health Minister Leo Varadkar will today appeal to doctors and nurses who have emigrated to come home.

The Fine Gael minister will say that the cycle of cuts to the health service will be no more.

In his main address to the party’s national conference in Castlebar in Co Mayo, he will say that he wants the message to go out from Ireland to doctors, nurses and therapists in England, Australia and the Middle East that it is time to consider coming home and being part of the health service recovery here.
