Earlier this week we bid farewell to a lady who was respected & loved by all.
Ber was an outstanding colleague and a dear friend, gracious & generous with a giving nature.
She was the backbone of our service here in Cork & she will be sadly missed.

Do No Harm
"There is now an urgent need to adapt our systems of emergency and unscheduled care. Older people are not asking for special treatment or something that is unrealistic or undeliverable, they simply want to matter"

Wishing the very best to Dr @AndyPattonIRL as he heads for the capital to continue his training in emergency medicine.
