Staffing levels in Ireland’s health service are “in freefall”, the INMO has warned today.

Nursing and midwifery students have strongly criticised a report into their treatment during the pandemic released tonight.

Student representatives, who met this evening, said that the report does not reflect the high-COVID risk Irish hospitals now pose, nor the work they will be asked to do in the coming weeks and months.
