Pauline Tully: Will the Minister consider undertaking a stakeholder review of the progressing disability services model in light of the fact that it does not work on many fronts?

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

Roderic O'Gorman: The implementation of the progressing disability services programme is agreed Government and HSE policy. This policy supports the reconfiguration of children's disability services to provide equitable child- and family-centred services based on need rather than diagnosis. Crucially, this aligns with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The HSE's roadmap for service...

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

Pauline Tully: The progressing disabilities model is not working on many fronts. There were 91 CDNTs established before the end of 2021. According to the HSE census from a year ago, only one of those teams was fully staffed. A number were close but quite a number had vacancy rates up to 70%. A team cannot function with a vacancy rate of 70% or even 50% or 30%. Many children have no access to their...

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

Roderic O'Gorman: I cannot disagree with anything the Deputy said in terms of the challenge the significant level of vacancy poses for the CDNTs all over the country and their ability to deliver crucial interventions for children and the subsequent improvements in quality of life for families. The next Government will look at the progressing disabilities model and have an opportunity to make decisions. We...

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

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...

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

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)

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

Neasa Hourigan: He just decided to opt out because he could not be treated with dignity.

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)

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.
