Joint Committee On Health
Addiction Services: Discussion
Mr. John Calnan:
"No" is the short answer. The Chairman is correct. The work is challenging. It is full-on in terms of the issues with which the staff of our organisation are presented. In the past couple of years, the Covid situation brought an extra level of stress with which staff had to deal. We have structures in place to support staff. We offer them monthly supervision, through which they connect with a supervisor externally. We also operate an employment assistance programme with which staff can connect. We would love to be in a position to offer more services but we would need access to funding to do so.
