Foster Care Issues and the Loss of Positive Care Services: Engagement with Tusla
Mr. Bernard Gloster:
On the therapeutic side, I might ask Ms Duggan to explain this. The assessment of need is part of it, but therapeutic services come in two streams in the health service, namely, primary care, which is not associated with disability or assessment of need, and disability assessment of need. Ms Duggan, who was previously one of those therapists, might explain that better.
