The proposal would mean that the psychiatric reception for the deaf and hard of hearing, which has the whole of Västra Götaland as an admission area, would have a changed mission and that the staff of the reception would work as consultants to the regular psychiatry instead.
Västra Götaland’s County Association of the Deaf and SDR have jointly tried to stop the change and now they have been heard, writes Döva’s newspaper. The reception will remain but will be moved. At present, it is unclear where, writes Dövas Tidning.
