Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care
Community Health Care Organisations: Discussion
10:00 am
Mr. Tony Canavan:
Our recruitment for staff in mental health services is ongoing and includes medical staff, nursing staff, adult health professionals and a whole range of staff. We had difficulty recruiting medical staff, particularly around Mayo, and nursing staff throughout, especially Galway and Roscommon. There is an ongoing recruitment of staff for mental health services.
