As Neurology services at Letterkenny Hospital is a service matter, I have asked the HSE to provide a response directly to the Deputy as soon as possible.
The National Service Plan 2025 (NSP) identifies the development of Neurology Services as a priority, such as establishing a hub and spoke model, chronic neurological management, functional neurological disorders and deep brain stimulation to enable timely access to neurology services. The NSP also commits to developing capacity on neurology and cardiac rehabilitation.
