Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Neurology and Neurorehabilitation Healthcare Strategies: Discussion

Ms Magdalen Rogers:

This is just our understanding. We can clarify and urge the committee to seek clarity on this directly from the HSE. Our understanding is that recruitment has not commenced for those teams because the primary notifications have not been sent to enable those teams to move forward. That is frustrating in view of that commitment and special interest by the Minister of State, Deputy Rabbitte, who in good faith got the funding for those community neurorehabilitation teams. There is a lot of frustration across the board that those teams are not up and running at this stage.
