Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Non-Covid Healthcare Disruption: Mental Health Services (Resumed)

Mr. Jim Ryan:

I might answer generally and allow Dr. Niazi to follow up. As the committee will be aware, the HSE produced a document on business continuity. The care groups have all looked at their own services to determine what they need to bring services back on stream. That plan is almost complete. We are trying to determine what we can do safely and whether we can use some of the technology we have learned about in recent months. We must also take the potential impact of a second wave of Covid-19 into account.
