in the first six months of this year. Another child escaped eight times for the Crannóg Nua unit in Dublin during the same period.in Dublin, which houses seven children, recorded 62 escapes in the 12-month period.Crannóg Nua, which can accommodate five children, recorded 20 escapes while Coovagh House, which has capacity for four children, had 26 incidents.
The level of risk of children absconding varied, according to Hiqa inspectors. In Crannóg Nua Inspectors found that incidents “were not associated with exposure to significant risk.” In Coovagh House, the inspector noted measures to reduce escapes had not been effective. This was concerning because some children who repeatedly absconded “engaged in risk-taking behaviour”.Abuse allegations, which oversees the centres, said most incidents occurred during trips with staff outside the units, known as “mobilities”.
There have been 12 allegations of abuse against staff in Crannóg Nua during the 12-month period, Hiqa noted, “the majority of which related to injury during a physical intervention”.
