The Ombudsman and Public Hospitals

The following is a text version of an Information Leaflet which the Ombudsman has published regarding the examination of complaints concerning Public Hospitals.  A downloadable version of the published document is also available below.

This leaflet deals with the hospital services provided by or on behalf of the HSE. We have a separate information leaflet about complaints relating to non-hospital services, for example Medical Cards, Supplementary Welfare Allowance and Nursing Home Subvention.
