Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters
Progressing Disability Services Model and Withdrawal of Occupational Therapies from Schools: Engagement with HSE
Mr. Cathal Morgan:
I absolutely agree with the Deputy. I will address this briefly, but we will provide members with a report, because we have very solid results on children moving quickly in intervention. We have solid results on that which we would like to share with members. Feedback is a continuous piece and Ms Angela O'Neill mentioned before that it is in a formal review with all key stakeholders. That is about making sure we learn from what we are doing, adapt and change and refine how our approach is going. That is inclusive of clinicians, as well as management and families themselves having an input into it. The Deputy's question is a good one, so it would be useful for us to include in our report back to the committee the outcomes achieved so far from the SOP, if that is okay with her.
