Description:
The Conal Devine Report examined the case of the service user (SU1) who was in full time foster care from 1989 to 2009 when she was removed by the HSE and provided with an appropriate full time residential placement with a voluntary provider. In particular the report found that there was; • Inadequate monitoring, supervision and oversight of care. • An absence of necessary liaison between those responsible for SU1’s placement in the foster home. • Inadequate response to remove SU1 from the foster home on a number of occasions after significant concerns had been raised. • An absence of the necessary protocols and arrangements to support the placement of vulnerable children and adults with a disability with foster families. • Serious deficiencies in record management, recording of case conference decisions, and appropriate case management and follow up of decisions made. Devine also identified a number of missed opportunities where action could have been taken, including; • 1996 Case Conference Decisions • 2004 Potential Move to Residential Care • 2008 Consent from Birth Mother for move to residential care • March 2009 Following review at Sexual Assault Treatment Unit
