Questions (506)

Catherine Murphy

Question:

506. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Health if he will outline the care options that a child with a chronic, serious condition that requires near constant care is entitled to; if, in providing such care through the home care package, any consideration is given to the continuity of the person providing the care and if this is the best option for the child instead of rotating agency staff; if in many cases it would be economically more feasible to employ a dedicated team as opposed to agency staff; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, it has been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy.
