Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Access to Community Neurological Rehabilitation Teams: Discussion
Ms Magdalen Rogers:
A commitment is needed to implement the neurorehabilitation strategy. A genuine commitment needs to be made on behalf of the patients. It is not a recruitment issue concerning the community neurorehabilitation teams because we have not seen recruitment start for the teams around the country. Even for those funded since 2020, we have not seen recruitment start. Therefore, we are really talking about a lack of momentum and commitment to implementing the strategy to meet the needs of the patients.
