Patricia Byrne
Dr. Patricia Byrne is a prominent psychiatrist and the chair of the faculty of child and adolescent psychiatry at the College of Psychiatrists of Ireland. She has been vocal about the challenges facing Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (Camhs) in Ireland, particularly the difficulties in recruitment and the inadequacies in service delivery for young patients suffering from mental illness. As an advocate for reforms, Dr. Byrne emphasizes the need for better governance, specialist training, and increased staffing to address the ongoing issues within the mental health system, which she warns could lead to continued suboptimal care for vulnerable youth.
