The Minister of State for Disabilities has commenced a process of engagement with families countrywide to listen to their issues in the context of the delivery of disability services.
The Minister, the Department of Health and the HSE remain focused on developing and delivering services to children and young people with disabilities, that are child and family centred, and based on best national and international practice.
To ensure that the issues identified are considered and addressed in a consistent fashion across the Community Health Organisations and Children’s Disability Network Teams, it has been agreed that it is appropriate for representation from National HSE to attend any future meetings.
