Joint Committee On Health

Mental Health Services: HSE

Dr. Sinead O'Brien:

In terms of the residents, we have one high-support hostel placement becoming available next week, with a further high-support hostel placement becoming available the week after next. We have also secured a place in communal voluntary sector shared accommodation, and that was the will of that particular individual. There are a number of individuals for whom, before this decision was made regarding the premises, it was identified that their physical healthcare needs were such that they would require a nursing home placement. That is being pursued for a number of individuals. For the remaining individuals, we are pursuing a number of different options. We have yet to confirm the exact destination for those individuals. We are expecting individuals to start moving from next week.
