More than 21,000 children waiting for occupational therapy assessments
The HSE said some areas are unable to provide updated data as their staff have been redeployed to other areas due to Covid-19 responsibilities. File Picture.
A number of local healthcare organisations are unable to put a number on their waiting lists for children seeking occupational therapy, because their staff have been redeployed in the fight against Covid-19.
Neither Sligo/Leitrim nor Limerick LHOs were in a position to respond to a request for information regarding the size of their lists, with their entry being marked a blanket zero by the HSE.
