Partner and Head of Public, Regulatory and Investigations, Catherine Allen, was interviewed in the Irish Times on the topic of the importance of good governance in healthcare investigations.

Catherine will discuss this topic during her keynote speech at the Future Health Summit. This is a major international event for the healthcare industry, which takes place on Wednesday, 29 May and Thursday, 30 May at the Royal Dublin Convention Centre, Dublin 8.

Sometimes, because there is a desire on the part of the organisation to be proactive about having an investigation when an adverse event has occurred, they want to just jump straight in and find out what happened, to make sure it doesn’t happen again. But the problem is that jumping into an investigation without having a plan can create more difficulties, notes Catherine Allen, Head of Public, Regulatory & Investigations at Mason Hayes & Curran.
