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

Verona Murphy: Yes, to deal with her disorder. She spent almost nine months there, during which time her father passed away. The tragedy is that when she left that setting she was referred back to CAMHS, which had neglected her in the first place. She is back to the same weight she was when she was admitted to the hospital in the first place. We are failing, and failing miserably. While the girl is...

Verona Murphy: I would like to say it is impossible but I sat in the hospital for a day with the patient. When it was discovered who I was, I was asked to leave. Not until then was there an intervention. Not until then did the psychologist come to the hospital and address the situation. Then it all had to happen as an emergency because the girl was in organ failure. This is crisis. For all the good...

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

Verona Murphy: No, I am still in the same position when it comes to eating disorders because we have not addressed the situation of either CAMHS units or CDNT units being staffed. We have 817 vacant positions in CDNTs. We are servicing nobody. The situation with CAMHS is almost identical. I will have to come back in later because I am out of time Will Dr. Henry prepare an answer in the interim? CAMHS...

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

Verona Murphy: The Cornmarket project in County Wexford is a support service for individuals with a history of addictions. A co-ordinator in the services has contacted me to say that the HSE is set to slash 26 front-line positions in social inclusion services at the end of this year. Twelve of those positions are specific to addiction-related services, and at a time when the demand for services is...

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

Verona Murphy: I would say it makes no sense at all given that every rural community in this country is facing an existential crisis with drugs. It is no longer the pastime of those who should be avoided. It is every village and community, and every young person I am acquainted with can tell me of friends or themselves being accosted and how it is being used in different environments. Now, this is not...

Verona Murphy: I am glad to hear it and I hope he will come back to me. Should there be any instance where we are deciding that, it should be decided by a stakeholder engagement group, which includes gardaí, community liaison officers and politicians. It should be everybody.

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

Verona Murphy: Correct. That should happen well in advance of any cuts. I thank Mr. Gloster.

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

Verona Murphy: I think the planning has been granted, or if not, it is in the process. My issue is that is what the €2.2 million would probably be going towards but we need that capital infrastructure. Is there any update on the medical centre for New Ross? No. Dr. Henry was putting his hand up to me there.

Verona Murphy: I do not want to take advantage, Chair, but I would appreciate a little latitude.

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

Verona Murphy: I turn to the reality of what is happening in our mental health services across the board. I do not know what kind of key performance indicators the HSE is using, but I can tell the witnesses of an adult who has been separated from her children for a couple of weeks, inflicted by her mother, who took her in because she is not coping mentally. She visited local mental health services where...
