Saint John of God Community Services Transferring All Service Provision To The HSE

St Raphael's in Celbridge is one of the services run by SJOGCS

Chief Executive of the Service, Clare Dempsey, said it was a very sad day

Saint John of God Community Services is transferring all its service provision to the HSE.

It will happen later this year and follows the failure to conclude a funding agreement with the Health Service Executive.

Chief Executive of the Service, Clare Dempsey, said it was a very sad day.

The organisation is described as a leading provider of intellectual disability and community mental health services.

It employs 3,000 staff and volunteers in 300 locations across Kildare, Wicklow, Dublin, Meath, Louth and Kerry.
