Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Impact of Covid-19 on Neurological Services, Care and Capacity: Neurological Alliance of Ireland

Ms Magdalen Rogers:

If I could come in there briefly, I re-emphasise the need for the neuro-rehabilitation strategy to be implemented. Many issues are arising throughout the patient experience. For example, the Ombudsman report of last year, Wasted Lives, was an indication of the neuro-rehabilitation strategy not functioning in its implementation. People are ending up in nursing homes because there are not appropriate long-term rehabilitation facilities in the community.
