HSE described as a 'monster' by Cavan Councillor: Cllr Shane P O'Reilly has raised his concerns over the amount of senior positions which have not been filled by the HSE across local hospitals and healthcare services. The Cavan councillor outlined a number of issues facing health workers across the region, particularly palliative care staff.
