Cork eating disorder centre has waiting list for first time in its history

Erin O’Reilly, clinical manager of the Eating Disorder Centre Cork, revealed that the EDCC has been “inundated” over the past year or so.
Increased demand for eating disorder support has led to a waiting list for services at a Cork centre for the first time in its history.
The Eating Disorder Centre Cork (EDCC), established in January 2008, is a not-for-profit counselling and support centre based at Penrose Quay that provides services for people and their families. Its services are available without referral from a GP and are provided on a sliding scale, subsidised by funding from the HSE.
