Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Proposed Closure of Cuisle Accessible Holiday and Respite Care Resort: Discussion
Ms Rosemary Keogh:
No. Some of our funding has changed but the Cuisle funding has not. The overall allocation has changed. The IWA's largest services are PA services. Anybody who is familiar with this service will know it is provided on an hourly basis. We bill at an agreed contracted rate, which has not changed for many years for the number of hours we provide. The HSE will regularly ask the IWA to take on increased PA hours. When this happens, we get paid for those hours.
