‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Trainee Nurses Interview System. Student nurse intake and training hospitals
Summary
Sherlock asked about increasing student nurse numbers and designating smaller hospitals such as Mallow as training hospitals; Desmond said these were separate questions.
Would the Minister state if it is proposed to increase the number of student nurses being taken into the service in order to rectify the situation where hospitals are greatly understaffed? Would the Minister also say if it is intended to designate smaller general hospitals, such as Mallow, as training hospitals?
