| Description: | In approaching the question of child health services, the main concern of
the Comhairle is, by reason of its statutory functions, focused on those
elements of the services which are hospital-based and staffed at consultant
level. It is, therefore, important to stress, at the outset, that the
Comhairle recognises quite well that hospital services, albeit important,
are only part of the total child health services. Furthermore, it is not an independent
segment of the total service. Hospital services can only function
at maximum efficiency and effectiveness as an integral part of a wider
range of child care and treatment services. The Comhairle acknowledges
that there is a danger of an undue emphasis on hospital care that might
detract from the importance of community and residential care. It is essential
that all three elements - community care, hospital care and residential
care - should be seen as being of equal importance and equally in need of
development. |
