A health report comparing health attitudes, beliefs and status among Irish and non-Irish nationals will be published today.
Over 1,000 adults took part in the 2007 Pfizer Health Index, which highlights health concerns and priorities among the general public.
This year, the study was expanded to incorporate non-Irish national populations.
In its preliminary results released two weeks ago, the company found almost nine out of 10 non-Irish nationals in Ireland (89 per cent) are here to work or to find work.
It also revealed three out of five people would make more hospitals and hospital beds their first priority in the Irish health service, while 9 per cent want more access to GPs, with another 9 per cent believing there should be greater provision of medical cards.
Guest speakers will also examine how Ireland can best address the health needs of newer populations.
