Written Answers. - Chiropody Services.
Each health board has Day Centres attached to the geriatric hospitals and Day Centres for those suffering from a mental disorder. Chiropody services are available to clients attending these centres. These services are generally provided on a sessional basis. In addition there is a number of Day Centres in each health board area which are run by voluntary bodies. Chiropody services are also available in some of these centres.
