Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Neurology and Neurorehabilitation Healthcare Strategies: Discussion
Ms Magdalen Rogers:
I can talk about it a little bit. I had hoped that the lead would be here to answer that in more detail. In our understanding, there was a delay in notifying the hospitals to go ahead and recruit those nurses. While the funding was delivered in budget 2022, by the time the letters went to the hospitals it was May 2023. That gave an extremely tight window for hospitals to recruit to a specialism as specialised as neurology nursing.
