Recent inspections of mental health facilities in Kilkenny, Tipperary, and Monaghan show high compliance with standards and how management and staff responded to protect patients from Covid-19 last year.

That is according to the Mental Health Commission, which found that two of three facilities inspected in 2020 were 100% compliant with standards.
