Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

Progressing Disability Services: Discussion

Ms Nicola Hart:

The HSE is the biggest employer of therapists. In an environment where bills are going up and where there are all of the other pressures on staff and their families, it is difficult to say to the system that is employing them that this is not ethical but I do not believe that the services, as they are being delivered at present, are being delivered in an ethical way.
