"Ive just raised 12,000 for the HSE. I had to park my car overnight at the hospital. Cheaper to let them keep it The whole parking thing in this country, especially at hospitals really boils my piss. In France, parking at hospitals is free, and normal parking in towns is free between 12 and 2pm to encourage people to go in to town and eat at the restaurants, its not rocket science " Welcome to Ireland! Cheaper would be take a taxi or bus I know, came from the continent long time ago but still a few things annoy me like parking fees at the hospitals... | |||

" Exactly, and the hospital in cork is across the road from a shopping centre where most will park for Hospital appointments. I always go in and shop there as a thanks for my parking. | |||

" Yes but most car parks are run by separate companies who have to pay staff, insurance etc. I do think if people are using the facilities in a hospital, or have appointments etc should b free but than if went that way would there be any revenue for the company running it. | |||

"I had a lit off appointments last year in CUH. Couldnt use the shopping as centre as was unable to walk that far at the time. Anyway after all my visits, I had paid just over €100. Stuck it in my medical expenses and got 20% back. Still think its wrong to have to pay to park in hospital grounds if you are a patient." Absolutely agree. It's bonkers considering all the other charges! | |||

"It's obscene when people who have loved ones who have passed away only to come out and have to pay to leave.. Maybe a dedicated car park for those with patients who are terminally ill? " Agree, there are many possibilities | |||

"It's obscene when people who have loved ones who have passed away only to come out and have to pay to leave.. Maybe a dedicated car park for those with patients who are terminally ill? A parking permit for families as that car park like disabled zones would be full of misguided selfish idiots!" @Madame, plenty of them park on the disabled places because are too lazy to walk to the doors. In my homeland it was a big campaign 15 years ago: "If you want to take my parking space why you wouldn't take my disability?" The nationwide campain helped. I havent seen since that time an eejit who took someones parking space. It happens too often in Ireland I don't know its people's ignorance, selfishness or just idiocy? I just feel sometimes to hit a stupid head wouldnt be enough to teach them manners | |||

They are completely selfish | |||

"As a hospital worker there's two reasons for charging, 1 to fund services that are underfunded and 2 when free previously the amount of people who parked there, got the bus to town for work/shopping meant no parking for patients or staff. So unfortunately it's necessary. " I for one would take a tax hike to fund our health service properly. If it was done properly and transparently I think most people would be up for it. | |||

"In fairness slainte care will hopefully improve things by taking a lot of unnecessary procedures out of hospitals and into the community. Covid has unfortunately held up the roll out of that. But the biggest problem in the Irish health system is the private public system and until that is abolished then there will never be a good and fair system. Canada have no private healthcare its all public but well funded. It's easy to say it's too many managers not enough front line (yes it's true) but it's also very complex also " Why is the private system wrong in your opinion I pay my taxes like anyone else which helps fund the public health system I also pay a lot of after tax money to pay for private care My family are not a burden on the public system so I think its a good idea | |||

It leads to patients with insurance being able to get seen faster and have their procedures carried out faster because the consultant and hospital get paid more. There is a place for private healthcare, in private hospitals and yes I have health insurance " | |||
