Concerns Raised Over Eating Disorder Treatment Waiting Lists

80 people are currently on waiting lists across the country.

More detail on eating disorder treatment waiting lists is being called for.

The HSE is confirming 80 people across the country are on waiting list for specialist eating disorder teams.

Eight of whom are in the Midlands and Dublin region.

Longford-Westmeath TD Sorca Clarke wants clarity on waiting times and breakdowns by region, including gaps between CAMHS and adult services.

The HSE says there are currently 11 Eating Disorder teams operational across the HSE and an additional 3 in recruitment.

In 2026, additional funding was allocated for two further teams.
