GBFM Newsroom - Concerns are being raised over the number of vacant consultant psychiatrist posts across the Western region.
The matter was raised at a meeting of the Health Forum West by Councillor John Connolly.
It was admitted by officials that there are ongoing difficulties in the recruitment of consultant psychiatrists - with many posts are proving very difficult to fill.
An assurance was given that a new focus group is looking at how certain regions are being marketed as a place to work and live.
Councillor Connolly is hopeful that will lead to results.
