Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care

A Vision for Change: Update from Health Service Executive

10:00 am

Ms Anne O'Connor:

In our document, we reference the importance of having a recovery. Mr. Hennessy can speak as our head of engagement. Things have improved. We are fully committed to putting service users at the centre of what our business is about. Mr. Hennessy came into post a year ago as our head of engagement with service users and family members. He is driving the service user agenda. We now have an area lead for engagement within each community health organisation and the critical thing is that for the first time this has allowed us to have an equal voice for service users at our management table.
