Episode Details

Irish nurses and midwives, represented by the INMO union, are grappling with escalating violence and assaults in their workplaces, leading to a loss of trust in the government and HSE. The union is advocating for safety as a top priority and is set to question Health Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill on safety measures, staffing shortages, and mileage payments at their annual conference. The HSEs decision to freeze hires has been criticized as reckless, as it delays patient care and increases risks. The union is pushing for new laws to enforce safety changes, as current fiscal priorities are overshadowing safety concerns.
