Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

James O'Connor: I would like to get correspondence from the HSE on that this week, if possible, to get a live update on where we are. There is concern locally about the pace of development. It feeds back into a wider issue with any capital development in the HSE, which is the length of time it takes.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

James O'Connor: I ask for a progression timeline too.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: I congratulate the Cathaoirleach on being the first woman appointed to chair the Committee of Public Accounts.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: I thank both our Leas-Chathaoirleach and former Cathaoirleach for their inputs to the Committee on Public Accounts during my term. I thank the witnesses for their attendance. I will start with a quick question about capital infrastructure. What is the update on to the 97-bed block for Wexford General Hospital? Will Ms McGirr answer?

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: I thank Ms McGirr. I do not know who is responsible with regard to the home care support services but I am very concerned about the volume of calls I am getting whereby those in receipt of the care and their home carers are being informed they are no longer allowed to feed those they are supporting. While this has been sent out in the form of an email with the guidelines set down in a HSE...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: I am particularly discussing someone who has a 22-year-old dependent child who is intellectually and physically disabled and unable to feed himself.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: That is fine.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: No, this has gone across.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: We have sent the information. We will re-send it. If it is that and there should be a reassessment, the HSE should not be writing to parents and putting the fear of God into them that this is no longer a part of the care that is provided because it is a very stressful environment already. I will take that up with Ms Broderick.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: I know that and I appreciate that but it is very concerning and upsetting. My other question might also be for Ms McGirr. Will she give an update on a medical centre for New Ross, County Wexford? The latest proposal was turned down as it was no longer viable, apparently. Can I have an update on that please? I have a question for Mr. Mulvany. How much does it cost to keep a public...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: A standard fee with no machines.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: There is a baseline of €1,000.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: If a 15-year-old was in a bed for 91 days with acute anorexia in a public hospital with no specialty department, would it raise a red flag for anybody? Would a question be asked either clinically or administratively?

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Verona Murphy: The last time Mr. Mulvany appeared before the committee I put it to him that there had been a young girl with anorexia in University Hospital Waterford for 30 days. I was incorrect. I am stating on the record that it was actually 91 days. There was no clinical intervention that she should be moved until I got involved, and there was no administrative intervention to ask why she was there....

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.

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

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...

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

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...
