Joint Committee On Health
Mental Health Commission Interim Report on CAMHS: HSE
Mr. Jim Ryan:
This service is provided by Lucena Clinic Services, which is a St. John of God-provided service. That service has worked very hand-in-glove with the HSE over the years. As the Deputy may know, in adult mental health, the mental health services in that part of south Dublin are provided by Cluain Mhuire Community Mental Health Services, which again is a St. John of God service but it is contracted by the HSE to deliver the service on behalf of the population of that area. It is not a commercial operation but is part and parcel of the way in which service is provided in that area. It is external to the HSE.
