Stock photo Image: Shutterstock/Photographee.eu CLINICIANS WITH THE National Gender Service have told TDs and Senators that more funding and resources are needed for healthcare services for transgender people in Ireland.
The speakers included Professor Donal O’Shea, a consultant endocrinologist with the NGS, Dr Ian Schneider, a psychiatrist with the NGS and Professor Fiona McNicholas, who works as a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist at CHI Crumlin. It is understood there was a disagreement about waiting lists during the meeting, with the clinicians telling politicians that there is a three-year waiting list for initial referrals.
“I welcome the core message delivered by the clinicians present- that trans healthcare in this country needs further funding and resources and that the service should be expanded,” Hourigan told The Journal. Ruadhán added that he believed there was a lot of support from politicians who attended the meeting, and that he wanted to see more action.
More funding is needed in the system for normal people also.
Money for clinicians .
But Trans already have the same care as the rest of us. Just because they feel different today should not mean they get special healthcare.
More resources and funding is needed for all healthcare full stop .
Why is Tavistock closing I wonder
Free boob jobs for gay men
If being trans is not a mental health condition (which the lads at TENI it isn't) then why do they need funding for specific healthcare?
Nope
No no more money for transproblems Doctors Do No Harm please leave our children alone a child cant get a tattoo alcohol or smoke until they're 18 or 21 Look at what the UK are doing to sort out this problem & learn in the meantime Do No Harm docs!
'So you had your mickey cut off and now you have unnecessary medical conditions that the taxpayers will have to cover? Hmm, I do an inspection, please cough.'
“Trans children” should not have castration drugs or body parts cut away until they’re old enough to have a tattoo, buy alcohol or vote. It’s really that simple. This is about the medical establishment making money nothing more
There is something twisted behind that whole movement
Taxpayers should not fund their lifelong hormones and mutilating surgeries.
