It was mentioned that there was not a lot of international evidence and data available to be able to point to the tracking of outcomes and if there are differences in outcomes, perhaps more positive outcomes, for those in mainstream or special classes.

Ceisteanna Eile (Atógáil) - Other Questions (Resumed) (29 Feb 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I thank the Minister. I would like to receive that information. I had a recent response from the HSE on the expansion of the injury unit.

Ceisteanna Eile (Atógáil) - Other Questions (Resumed): Health Services (29 Feb 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: It definitely would, for north Clare and west Clare specifically because of the geography and the distance patients have to travel. Most often, the treatment requires three trips per week so it is a significant stress on my constituents. For those who cannot drive or do not have access to their own transport, it is a significant distress that they face on a weekly basis. That is something...
