HSE Issues Statement Regarding A Former Foster Home In The South East

The HSE has reassured those affected by shortcomings at a former foster home in the South East that it has taken action to rectify problems.

In a statement issued last night, the HSE said it has improved any deficiencies in childcare and disability services which were identified in a report by Senior Counsel Conor Dignam. The Executive has again apologised to Grace - the young woman at the centre of concerns about the home - for the poor care received at the hands of the foster family. The HSE said it had not waited for the publication of the report to act upon its recommendations.
