The Ombudsman has announced an investigation into how complaints are handled by public hospitals and has asked the public for their assistance.


[broken link removed] says the investigation is motivated by the unusually low number of health complaints received by his office compared to ombudsman’s offices in other countries.

Members of the public are invited to contact the ombudsman’s office at ombudsman.gov.ie, email hsecomplaints@ombudsman.gov.ie, phone 1890 223030 or by freepost at the office, 18 Lower Leeson Street, Freepost F5069, Dublin 2.
