Cared Ireland, a voluntary support group, has called for urgent improvements in eating disorder services in Ireland, particularly highlighting the dire shortage of inpatient beds. Currently, there are only three public inpatient beds for adults, far below the 23 promised. The group, following a Leinster House briefing, emphasized the need for greater funding and immediate action from politicians to enhance service delivery. Their demands include the establishment of fully staffed specialist treatment hubs and elimination of waiting lists for early intervention to provide timely care for those in crisis.
