Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Health Services for People with Epidermolysis Bullosa: Discussion

Ms Deirdre Callis:

I will add to that as well regarding the psychologist. I take the Deputy's point about the community but St. James's Hospital runs multidisciplinary clinics as well a number of times a year where families are brought in. They would have the opportunity there to meet the multidisciplinary team and that psychologist would form an integral part of that team. Therefore, the support is there as well in the acute setting and as Dr. Hickey said, this person would be the link to the community.
