Seanad Public Consultation Committee

Children's Mental Health Services: Discussion

10:00 am

Ms Paula Dalton:

I voiced it and the accident and emergency department got a referral from the autism spectrum disorder, ASD, saying this as well. It had received a referral from the ASD team and a letter from a general practitioner. I had been ringing and voiced concerns to say that the previous night, he was hearing voices, or whatever happened. I made those in the accident and emergency department aware.
