Pauline Tully: We have been hearing about a recruitment campaign for quite some time. The progressing disability model was drawn up in 2013 or 2014, I think. At that time, workforce planning was not done and we now do not have sufficient therapists. I acknowledge it will take time to educate enough therapists but there is no guarantee they will work in disability services. There are many other areas...

Neasa Hourigan: To respond to Mr. D'Arcy's point about decriminalisation, any time we make a suggestion to change the law there is concern on this side of the room about unintended consequences or what it would look like. Professor Comiskey, who appeared before the committee a couple of weeks ago, stated her understanding of the research is that more progressive laws do not necessarily increase use and more...

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: I presume the outcome of that is, again, a removal of yourself from the situation or a failure to engage when you probably need it most.

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: Am I right in thinking, just having sat on the task force a few times, that one of the answers to this is peer support, namely, that people would have a health advocate to sit with them and bring them back? In Mr. McCarthy's experience, is that something that works?

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: There are not enough people.

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: When that happens, in Mr. Perth's experience, what is the language that is used? Is it said the people need to go and get treatment for bipolar first?

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: It is that dual diagnosis thing that they just will not do it.

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: Am I right in thinking that if people go in somewhere with bipolar or whatever it might be to ask for treatment, they will often be told they need to get clean first?

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: It is a catch-22.

Rose Conway-Walsh: 5. To ask the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth to provide an update on children’s disability network teams in Mayo, including staff vacancies, recruitment and waiting lists for assessment and therapy; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [43583/24]

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Disability Services (24 Oct 2024)

Rose Conway-Walsh: Too many children are waiting for therapies and assessment in County Mayo. I am trying to get a grasp on the staff vacancies in the children's disability network teams, CDNTs, and the waiting lists for assessment and therapy in County Mayo.

Roderic O'Gorman: I thank Deputy Conway-Walsh for raising this question. I acknowledge the challenges faced by children and young people in terms of accessing services, particularly essential therapy services, in Mayo. The lead agencies there are experiencing ongoing challenges in recruiting across a range of disciplines and grades to fully staff the CDNTs. Recruitment is ongoing for administrative and...

Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank the Minister. The reality is that there are still too many vacancies. I take what the Minister is saying in terms of trying to attract staff. However, continually having vacant posts puts pressure on the workers who are there already. Last week, I was at a wonderful initiative with Mayo Autism Camp and Manulla FC. There were many parents and children there. Although the day was...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Disability Services (24 Oct 2024)

Roderic O'Gorman: I fully agree with the Deputy on the challenges of recruitment. It is the big challenge in disabilities services right now. The core solution to that is to train more health and social care professionals, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, physiotherapists and psychiatrists. We need more of them because the level of demand and need has increased, both because of...
