Question:547. Deputy Ciara Conway asked the Minister for Health the regulation and standards that exist in relation to home care/home support services, particularly but not limited to those servicing persons with neurological disabilities or those who have very specific support/care needs; if it is the case that the Health Service Executive is contracting for-profit service providers without any contract being drawn up regarding the specific types of services to be delivered and without any requirement for specifically trained or qualified carers; his plans to regulate and address the issues mentioned; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
