Services ProvidedDisability services are provided to those with physical, sensory, intellectual disability and autism in day, respite and residential settings. Services are delivered through a mix of HSE direct provision as well as through non-statutory Section 38 and 39 service providers and private service providers.
People with disabilities with care needs must be provided with a continuum of services such as, day care and intermediate residential care to avoid unnecessary acute hospital admissions and have their required treatments and supports delivered within their local community at primary care level in as far as possible.
These types of services must be responsive to service user needs and be provided flexibly at the least possible unit cost to build a sustainable system into the future.
Delivery of the planned level of services is dependent on the requirement for all services to manage and prioritise costs within available budgets. They also provide for some service increase relating to demographic growth. However, the rate of growth may continue to impact on our ability to meet required access performance targets.
In the case of some services, given that the HSE is the statutory provider of last resort and the realities around the relatively fixed nature of certain costs, there is a requirement to respond to need even if this exceeds what can be supported by the available funding level.
Within disability services, this primarily relates to residential places and emergency cases.A Key function of the Disability Service is to: Organise and deliver the required services safely and to a set of standards while reconfiguring the available resource through a comprehensive reform process, increasing productivity and changing traditional cost structures in the process.
In line with the Department of Health Statement of Strategy 2019 - 2021, the Disability Services Social Care Division will: Implement the recommendations of the Value for Money and Policy Review of Disability Service so as to implement reforms to the system of financing and delivery of services including the introduction of individualised budgets.
Enhance the cost effectiveness of services by the introduction of standardised funding bands for specific types of services for people with disabilities and developing a standardised needs assessment framework to ensure that levels/types of services provided are appropriate to people’s needs.
In addition, the Disability Services Social Care Division will progress the implementation of key programmes including: HSE National Service Plan 2025 Path to Universal Healthcare: Sláintecare & Programme for Government 2025+ The programme for Progressing Disability Services for Children and Young People. The Review of Autism Services.
