Transport to Adult Learning Disability Daycentres
Dear Southern Health and Social Care Trust (Northern Ireland),
Please could you provide me with the number of service users in Adult Learning Disability Daycentres who are currently receiving transport to the Learning Disability Daycentres from March 2021 to June 2021?
How many families are now providing their own transport to the Learning Disability Daycentres?
How many service users are currently receiving Day Care in the Adult Learning Disabilities in the Southern Trust Area?
Yours faithfully,
Tracey Gilliland
Thank you for your email.
We acknowledge receipt of your request.
You will be aware of the significant pressures on our health and social
care services during the current third surge of the Covid-19
pandemic. During this time we have been asking our staff to prioritise
their professional caring duties and to support frontline health and
social care services in responding to the emergency. This has
understandably had an impact on other duties within their role such as
responding to legislative requirements under FOI and the processing of
Subject Access Requests.
We assure you that your request will be logged and processed, and we will
do our utmost to respond as quickly as possible.
Yours faithfully
Information Governance Team
