Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

South Kerry Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: HSE

Ms Anne O'Connor:

Maybe, but not necessarily. As chief operations officer, I may or may not be made aware. I would have to check and see. That may have been dealt with somewhere within the organisation when it came in, but I am personally not aware of that request. I can check that out though and see if somebody within the team is.

In terms of whether it is possible, I am sure it is possible for there to be issues with prescribing even where there is a consultant in place. However, it is probably quite unlikely. Certainly, we have to work on the basis that it would be quite unlikely. Dr. Burke can share her view on that.
