Donnelly open to including other hospitals in spinal surgery review

Health minister Stephen Donnelly is set to meet families himself this week and said he intended to listen carefully to their requests as well.

Health minister Stephen Donnelly said he was open to updating the terms of reference for a proposed external review of serious safety issues around spinal surgeries at Temple Street hospital.

This follows calls from patient advocacy groups for any review to look at the clinical situation across all hospitals connected to Temple Street, as part of the Children’s Health Ireland hospital group.
