Question:
To ask the Minister of Health, Social Services and Public Safety what specialist resources, including staff, are available at the Robinson Community Hospital, Ballymoney, for Multiple Sclerosis patients and their families.

Answer:

There are currently no Multiple Sclerosis (MS) specialist services provided at Robinson Community Hospital. However, two staff members have previously worked within the MS respite centre in Dalriada Hospital. Any equipment resources that are not already available within Robinson Hospital could be transferred from Dalriada as necessary.
