We must stamp out abuse in care homes

IN my letter to the Irish Examiner (June 11), regarding alleged abuse in some care homes, I criticised the absence of inspections applied to HSE-run esablishments.

I didn’t expect the Minister of State for disabilities, Kathleen Lynch, to act so quickly (within a week) and promise that such inspections will now be carried out.

I wonder if Prime Time had anything to do with it?
