‘Notable absence’ of pharmacists from teams in youth mental health services, says report
The audit noted that nearly all patient records were kept on paper, which represented a “very significant burden” on the “overstretched” service, where 3,000 young people were on waiting lists to be seen.
It said there was a “notable absence” of pharmacists from multi-disciplinary teams in Camhs at present. The HSE said the review had found there had been no evidence of over-prescribing medications to young people. The review found 159 cases where medication had been prescribed to young people without consultation with a consultant psychiatrist.
