HSE South West Under Fire Again

HSE South West is under fire again — this time with fresh concerns over governance, finances, and patient safety reaching the top.

Politicians are taking notice, with Labour’s Marie Sherlock highlighting regional struggles. To fix things, the HSE has brought in Kevin Foley, a former Labour Court chairman, to work with leadership. While the system’s overall deficit remains steep at 400 million euros, overspending has stabilized and some regions are showing signs of improvement — for now.
