HSE CEO Paul Reid

 

HSE CEO Paul Reid turns a blind eye to proven serious misconduct by HSE staff:


Further proof that disabled pensioners with medical cards are of little or no consequence to HSE.


As I was experiencing further problems brought about by Tallaght Hospital's conduct and lack of care etc and because I have been totally housebound since 2017 my G.P. referred me for physiotherapy home care.

It was clear from the outset that the physios did not want the bother of home visits.


Physio #1:

Senior physio Ms V. Murray made two home visits during 2018 and then informed my G.P., in writing, that having discussed CRU [Community Reablement Unit] with me she had discharged me from her care.

I stated that Ms Murray's claims were false and the HSE investigation ruled, in writing, that [as I claimed] no such discussion had ever taken place.

However the HSE investigation dismissed my complaint and stated that I was to blame for Ms Murray's false claim of a discussion. That is, I was to blame for a discussion that only existed in Ms Murray's imagination.

Also the HSE declined to correct the false information that Ms Murray had fed my G.P. However after a year they were forced to rectify via Freedom of Information [FOI].


Physio #2:

A considerable time later another senior physio, Ms A. McGrath visited me once in Dec 2019 and then informed my G.P., in writing, that having discussed CRU with me that I had agreed to consider CRU and would contact my G.P. when I had made a decision regarding this and she was therefore discharging me from her care.

As I had not and could not accept CRU as an option [in fact I told Ms McGrath that CRU had told me they could not help because of my current condition] I made a formal complaint directly to Mr P. Reid HSE CEO. I accused Ms McGrath of falsification, passing false information to and misleading my G.P.

Some time later Mr D. Walsh [National Director of Community Operations] who was investigating on behalf of Mr Reid wrote to me dismissing my complaint on the grounds that it had already been fully and formally investigated.


I wrote to Mr Reid informing him that Mr Walsh's claim was false - Mr Reid ignored me.

After obtaining proof under FOI that no investigation had ever taken place, I again wrote to Mr Reid informing him of this and requested he refer matters to the Gardai [as falsification of medical/clinical records could constitute a criminal offence] – Mr Reid ignored me.


HSE has written to me stating that physio Ms McGrath admits that I had fully explained why and how CRU was not and could not be an option. 

Despite this they say that Ms McGrath did no wrong in telling my GP that I had agreed to consider CRU and then contact my GP – Mr Reid continues to ignore me.

Unaccountability is just one reason why our health care is in such a state and staff can and do indulge in falsehoods and falsification with Mr Reid's approval – after all its proven that he indulges in the same conduct.

This type of misconduct affects every patient, but no one is really bothered until it affects them – then its too late.

People worry about self-isolation because of the virus – the last time I got out walking was May 2017 and I've been out just once since before last Christmas.

The silence of Taoiseach Varadkar

The silence of Taoiseach Varadkar:



After 7 months of silence I reasonably requested Taoiseach Varadkar to update me regarding my complaint to him against Minister Simon Harris.

Taoiseach Varadkar declined my request and informed me that he had passed it on to Minister Harris for his attention.

Meaning that I must await on Minister Harris's pleasure while he investigates himself.

So, the government are fully aware that, for example, the Medical Council indulge in falsification and falsehoods, including altering evidence and complaints from patients and are indifferent despite the official independent evidence.

A very major problem [for patients] is that the Medical Council's CEO presents my case to the inquiry [who take evidence under oath] yet the CEO is just one of the persons party to the falsifications and altering I have complained of and proven.

Taoiseach Varadkar appoints Minister Harris to investigate Minister Harris.


Minister for Health Simon Harris has twice refused to accept and investigate my complaints against his Dept. of Health and the Medical Council by insisting he did not have the authority.

This although he had the incontrovertible documentary evidence of serious misconduct and criminal activity and the relevant law gave him the required authority.

The Medical Council has been proven to have completely fabricated a complaint and altered and falsified evidence from me.

Because of this I lodged a formal complaint with An Taoiseach Leo Varadkar requesting he investigate the conduct of Minister Harris and to ensure there could be no doubt I said -

as well as my original complaints, I'm accusing Minister Harris of covering up serious misbehaviour and that includes the proven criminal offences

My complaint was lodged 6 weeks ago.

Having acknowledge receipt of my complaint I was then informed that my complaint had been forwarded to Minister Harris to investigate.

So Minister Harris is now investigating himself.

The proven allegations against the Medical Council are of national importance as such conduct, in principle, would affect every patient in the country.

Minister for Health Simon Harris T.D.

Minister for Health Simon Harris now has the documentary proof:


I have lodged a formal request to Minister Harris to investigate serious misconduct on the part of the Medical Council and his own Dept' of Health.

This complaint is based on 7 detailed instances of serious misconduct that are fully supported by documentation, including from the Information Commissioner and the Data Protection Commissioner.

The documentary evidence has been fully set out for Minister Harris.

Misconduct includes falsification and fabrication. Claiming to possess documentary evidence proven never to have existed, the fabrication of complaints and ignoring documentary evidence etc.


Apart from everything else I believe the minister's investigation will almost certainly uncover criminal activity.

Medical Council admits to further fabrications:



 Medical Council forced to admit to further fabrications:


During 2017 I discovered that the Medical Council had written to outside third parties that they had examined and dismissed my complaint -

"an allegation that Dr Noel refused to treat Mr. Trent as Mr. Trent previously missed appointments"

As I never made any such complaint I requested the Medical Council withdraw this fabrication

During 2018 and despite my denial Ms W. Kennedy, Director of Corporate Services for the Medical Council informed me that they had reached a decision, regarding this complaint, to add a note to the effect that they had no evidence that I had missed appointments.

Since this meant the Medical Council were still insisting that they had such a complaint from me and that they had investigated it and dismissed it, I demanded they produce it.

During Dec 2018 The Data Protection Commissioner wrote and informed me that the Medical Council now admitted that they never had any such complaint from me and therefore could not produce any documentation.

So seven years after 'my' complaint was dismissed the Medical Council are forced to admit to further falsifications and fabrications, just like they were forced to admit to other falsifications and fabrications by the Information Commissioner in 2014.

The Medical Council are now in their eighth year of covering up for Tallaght Hospital's Dr J. Noel.

How could the Medical Council 'see' documentation, evidence, complaints etc that never existed?

How could Ms Kennedy add a note to a complaint that never existed?

Quite simply the Medical Council started out to cover-up for Dr Noel and nothing, even the truth, was going to get in the way. As proven, they would fabricate anything necessary to obtain their goal.

Hospitals are not obliged to investigate serious complaints:

Tallaght Hospital refused to interview their staff member I gave as a witness.


Ms H. Dixon rules that the hospital were right to refuse to interview my witness:


To cover up their culpability in leaving me crippled for life by Tallaght Hospital and their Dr J. Noel, the hospital claims I did not follow Dr Noel's instructions and my claims to have done so are lies. The hospital still stands by this, supported by the Data Protection Commissioner, Ms H. Dixon.
In rebuttal of the hospital's claims I identified, as my witness/proof, the staff member I had dealt with to support my complaint to the Hospital.
From 2010 to 2018 all documentation released shows that this staff member was never interviewed for the 'investigations' by the hospital or the Data Protection Commissioner and, obviously, had never denied dealing with me.
Ms H. Dixon has now closed my complaint to her, ruling that the fact that Tallaght Hospital had never involved the staff member I identified, was acceptable and fair process.
Ms Dixon is factually ruling that the hospital [any hospital] does not have to investigate very serious complaints that are backed by evidence - even though my health has been seriously damaged.
Justifying the exclusion of the identified staff member it's indicated to me that failure to interview the identified staff member is of no consequence as it's up to me to prove I'm not a liar and not up to the hospital to prove their claims that I'm a liar.
Ms Dixon insists that it's not good enough for me to identify and say, this is the staff member I dealt with. Ms Dixon says I have to prove I dealt with this staff member and it's not up to the hospital to speak to the staff member.
This clear bias conduct of the Ms Dixon is nothing new, but a question comes to mind - why exclude this hospital staff member for 8 years if she does not support my claims?
Ms Dixon has yet again made her stance very clear, she will protect the hospital and ensure they are not accountable - Thereby confirming what a coroner went on record as saying, that Tallaght Hospital “sounds like a very dangerous place to be for anybody, let alone a sick patient”.
What I and other pensioners are being told is that unless you have the finances to launch legal action, you have no Rights.

Data Protection Commissioner cites non-existent evidence:


 Ms H. Dixon claims to have evidence that does not exist - again


Refuses to produce 'evidence' and let me defend myself:


Data Protection Commissioner Ms H. Dixon claims she has documentary evidence [signed by me] that proves I've changed my story regarding Tallaght Hospital and lied.

I have denied that I have ever altered my claims from day one and therefore she cannot have documentation, created by me, to support her claims.

But like the Medical Council she refuses to produce said evidence and refuses me the opportunity to respond to it and defend myself.

She informs me that she has closed the file on this, yet another of my complaints and I'm therefore not entitled to a formal decision on my complaint as promised by the Data Protection Act.

I therefore say she has falsified evidence - just as the legal decisions proved the Medical council had done.

Unfortunately unlike the Medical Council, the Information Commissioner does not cover her, so I cannot force her hand and she uses her falsehoods to help Tallaght Hospital cover-up leaving me seriously disabled for life.

Everything else aside - I'm in my 9th month of being housebound because of Tallaght Hospital and their Dr J. Noel, but Ms Dixon does not see her job as to uphold my Rights and the law, rather to protect those who have crippled me.


# In another case - Since 2012 the Data Protection Commissioner has refused to protect my Rights relating to the illegal release of my medical records by Tallaght Hospital to outside 3rd parties against my wishes.

Throughout the free world including Ireland these Rights are enshrined in law to protect patients - but Ms Dixon makes an exception in my case and breaks the law to protect Tallaght Hospital and Ms E. Hardiman.
