I have raised the issue of the provision of insulin pump therapy for paediatric diabetic patients in Cavan and Monaghan a number of times. I was told that it would commence in the fourth quarter of 2023. I am now being told by the RCSI Hospital Group that a new pathway has been introduced for children in Cavan and Monaghan but it has been introduced at the Drogheda hospital. This will not actually help these children because parents now have to bring the children over to Drogheda to get insulin pump therapy. I may have been given misleading information. Is this actually going to be provided on site in Cavan or Monaghan?
