As per directive from Cameron Dick’s office we met with the SCHSD at Little Havens office. While Kevin Hegarty did not attend, he sent Kerrie Hayes –Executive Director of Clinical Services, Cang Dang- Service Director Community Integrated and Sub-Acute Services and Dr Louise Welch to basically tell us there was no more funding. Instead the message was clear – we should rationalise our admission numbers “close our books”.
Not satisfied with this, we requested they arrange a meeting with the Department of Health’s Strategic Policy Unit who set the funding agenda within the Department.
