Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

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

Professor Orla Hardiman:

What we will find in that, from my experience as a practitioner as well, is the need for a massive expansion of psychological and counselling services. Psychiatrists will say there is an epidemic of anxiety and stress disorders. We see that in the neurological community so we will be demonstrating the need for a significant expansion of psychological and counselling services. That is an important part of the multidisciplinary team for immunology as well.
