Healthy outlook

LET’S face it, we Irish can’t run a health service. So why don’t we call in the experts? It would be cheaper in the end.

We are surrounded by centres of excellence like the health services of Norway, Sweden, Denmark, even the UK.

These countries have tried and tested services. Why not ‘twin’ one of our acute hospitals? Firstly, they will teach us how to do basic cleaning; our hospitals have been filthy since the nuns left.
