“Among reasons given for telling families of still-living victims are: “time since the event occurred” and “will disclosure maintain the patient’s/relevant person’s trust in the service? “”
If we tell them we allowed abuse to go on they won’t trust us anymore. Disgraceful.
A few people I’ve spoken to about this maintain that the person involved must be a relation of someone important or high up. That’s why they don’t want names coming out and why it was covered up. Yes, incompetence played a part but that’s not the whole story.
For fucks sake, HSE can be summed up with cover up and deny.
Realistically can the Health Minister do anything? or is the whole bureaucracy gone so bad that taking direct action is impossible.
So instead of a few families knowing for sure whether their loved ones were victims of abuse and potentially losing trust in the HSE, those families *and many more* will now always be wondering whether their loved ones were abused and have no trust in the HSE anyway for choosing not to inform them.
Have I got that right?
I’m not fully aware of the details of this case but this statement seems very wrong. Also, were any of the perpetrators prosecuted?
“The HSE says”…let’s see what the courts say.
If the families don’t know their loved ones we’re abused, they can’t sue the HSE I imagine.
“The HSE is confident, it says, that not telling families of deceased victims “is morally and ethically correct”.” My arse.
“Brandon, who was the subject of an investigation by the National Independent Review Panel (NIRP) completed last year, was found to have perpetrated upwards of 108 incidents of abuse on at least 18 victims between 2003 and 2016, “with the full knowledge” of staff and management.”
Every last one of those cunts should be locked up, not just the staggering figure of 11 perpetrators. Yet it seems nobody will be?

Fuck this place seriously.
Does informal of messing up has an expiry date??
2022 and the Irish State still covers up abuse.
