The National Picture

Only 15% of patients have access to a community neuro-rehabilitation team. The National Strategy for Neuro-Rehabilitation states that 9 teams are required, but only 2 have been delivered. Everyone deserves access to a community neuro-rehabilitation team. Areas highlighted in green have a team, areas highlighted in red do not. 

Please take this opportunity to contact the Oireachtas members that represent constituents in your area. Patients deserve better. Take action now.

Red indicates CHO areas that have no dedicated teams
