Sir, – Orla Barry asks the above question (March 3rd) and is working to improve services. I’ve been trying to do this too, so I know her uphill battle. Our most vulnerable and quietest are most neglected and “community services” are, in our experience, non-existent.

Regardless of serious risks to health, medication is still all that is offered, and often without monitoring. – Yours, etc,
