“There were various points of time where the escalation should have happened stronger and interventions could have been made earlier” he said. “People were tying to oversee and do the right thing but it was only in September 2020 that community organisation alerted to the potential significance of this, and then a whole set of triggers and actions has taken place including the appointment of DrHe said a suite of actions will be taken to address system management failures in Kerry Camhs.
