Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE
9:30 am
Dr. Amanda Burke:
It is different in different areas. It can be very difficult to get nurses in Dublin because it is expensive to live here. It can be difficult to get consultants in particular areas of the country. We are organising a targeted CAMHS recruitment campaign, through service in the spotlight, to look at these vacancies. We particularly want to get our talking therapies increased, that is, the health and social care professionals, the psychologists and the social workers with family therapy. We are trying to increase those. It can be slow to get people.
