As a result it is almost like a spiral. That team disintegrates quicker due to the lack of support. Staff who work in psychiatry, and in other areas of medicine, do not have adequate support from the HSE to allow them to work effectively and efficiently. They burn out much more quickly. Are there any moves within the HSE to put in additional supports to support staff?

A member of staff is a fantastic resource to have. To allow such people to burn out and leave seems to be very uncaring on the part of the employer.
