Irish Patients Associations Slams Clare Home Care Backlog

The Irish Patients Association is demanding answers over lentghy backlogs for homecare in Clare. A new report from Home and Community Care Ireland shows 304 people in this county are now on a HSE waiting list for homecare supports. It's the highest amount per capita nationwide and also the third highest numerically, with only Cork and Galway having bigger lists. Director of the Irish Patients Association Stephen McMahon says the people of the MidWest are being neglected.
