Letters to the Editor: HSE's safeguarding plan is a joke

One reader writes in to say that they believe care has become a commercial commodity contracted to the lowest bidder

While families like the Murrays fight to put services in place before they die, we built a successful framework over a decade ago only to watch it collapse over the last two years because we dared to complain about ruthless actors.

Reading the recent articles in the Irish Examiner on HSE disability services only raises more issues and questions.

The outsourcing of home support to profiteering private entities. Paid millions by the State, these actors deliver appalling standards in services. Vulnerable people with neuro-disabilities suffer in silence, knowing that to complain is to risk losing their service entirely.
