The consultation process must be paused and independently reviewed, with formal inclusion of families whose children rely on these services.","additional_details":"Children accessing these services include those with complex medical needs, dysphagia, neurodevelopmental conditions and physical disabilities. Community SALT, OT and Physio prevent hospital admissions, support education settinga and reduce reliance on crisis services.
