RTÉ Investigates – Living on the List
RTÉ One
Monday 6th Feb 21.35
From the team behind the investigations into suicide charity Console, failings in Ireland’s foster care system, the Áras Attracta Care Home, Portlaoise Hospital and Ireland’s Crèches, the RTÉ Investigations Unit will reveal a number of major new stories this year.
This Monday night RTÉ Investigates reveals the painful reality behind the numbers on hospital waiting lists in Ireland. We follow patients who spend months and sometimes even years waiting to see a doctor or have treatment. How as time passes their conditions worsen and the long term impact can be far-reaching. How the impact goes far beyond the numbers on the waiting lists as families and friends are affected.
