Community Care
Dail Éireann — 2022-10-20
============================================================

Frankie Feighan (FG), Sligo-Leitrim

As I said, the HSE is looking to identify an alternative site on the St. Brendan's campus but, unfortunately, the community nursing unit is not an option as a long-term location for the St. Brendan's day care service. In the interim, the HSE is operating a service three days a week.
The Deputy raised some interesting questions regarding the capacity issue and the fact that the site is being used by administrative staff. He asked how long the process will take, and while I do not know, I will find out. This issue needs to be resolved and perhaps we will try to get all the stakeholders around the table to resolve it because it seems what the Deputy is looking for is quite reasonable. If he wishes to send me an email, I will bring the matter to the Minister of State's attention.
