Mary O’Carroll from Ballyduff spoke to Jerry about her 28-year-old son, Anthony, who is in the National Rehabilitation Hospital, Dublin. Anthony suffered a traumatic brain injury with multiple complex breaks throughout his body in a motorbike racing accident last July during a race in the Isle of Man. Anthony is getting great care from the amazing staff, but Mary says there’s a shortage of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and speech and language therapists. Jerry also spoke to Marie Ó Mír, CEO of the Irish Society of Chartered Physiotherapists. Jerry also received a statement from the Association of Occupational Therapists of Ireland.
