Resumen |
The current recession and crisis in public finances has resulted in most health systems being starved of new investment and facing significant cutbacks in many areas. Ireland's case provides a typical example following the collapse of the 'Celtic Tiger'. In this climate, a strong case exists for reallocating some of current health spending away from acute services towards community-based palliative care services. |
