Irish hospital consultants may have salaries cut, earning twice as much as in other countries

The quality of Irish health-care is a real concern given what we read about daily.

wtf. Over a year ago my 66 year old cousin started having heart problems, tests showed an aneurism on the descending aorta, next test showed he had a skipped heartbeat, in November they found he had three blocked arteries, each time he was sent home to wait for a bed and more testing. On December 10th he did not come home for dinner at 1pm three hours later he was found dead in the field. Last week the hospital called his house to set up the next test. He is only one of five people I know who died waiting for a bed in hospital. Bottom line they spend all that money and still only have at best third world medical coverage, and Obama care is on its way down that road. With most heart problems if they wait long enough the problem will take care of itself and then you bury the patient no more heart problem.

And how much do the commissioners make. What a joke.

Whatever about their salaries, Irish paediatric consultants in Irish hospitals are not even alert to the everyday risks to babies. On 7/1/2013 the Irish Medical News revealed that in Ireland seventy bottle-fed babies a day are exposed to over a hundred times more fluoride than if breast-fed, yet these consultants don't warn parents about it.
