Children & adults in need of help with speech, eating, drinking & swallowing are on lengthening waiting lists

Children and adults in need of help with speech, eating, drinking and swallowing are on lengthening waiting lists across Ireland. It’s because certain therapists have been switched by the HSE to carry out swabbing and Covid-19 contact tracing. Are you someone effected by this? Have you had an appointment cancelled? Anne Rabbitte is the Minister of State Department of Children, Disability, Equality and Integration with responsibility for Disability, she joined Andrea along with some listeners with their views on the show.
