Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 June 2015
424. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Health the assistance available to clients of residential care facilities in respect of occupational aids that may be required; the person responsible for the purchase of aids for individual residents, such as hospital beds, recliner chairs, wheelchairs and so on; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24684/15]
View answerUnder the Health (Pricing and Supply of Medical Goods) Act 2013, the Health Service Executive (HSE) has statutory responsibility for the administration of the primary care schemes; therefore the matter has been referred to the HSE for attention and direct reply to you.
If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days, please contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.
