Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on Key Issues Relating to the Health Service: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Bernard Gloster:

From October we will introduce a single point of access for children being referred to community healthcare. There have been four regional workshops on it already, with two to go. This will take away a lot of the complexity for parents. The issue of the waiting list is still a challenge and the Minister, the Secretary General and I are finalising details of an intervention to reduce the waiting lists over the coming months.
