1/2 Will #covid_19 finally get us to question the model of long term care for older people developed in Ireland? Will we question the creation of large scale nursing/ residential homes where we cohort 100s of vulnerable and frail people? #hearhcare #ireland #socialcare

.@SaturdayKitchen it was absolutely amazing to eat and very easy cook. The complexity of the spicing, the depth of flavour were superb. Might be a challenge if you don’t have all the spices in your store cupboard bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/buffa…

You must try the Vinsobres - it used to be a Côtes du Rhône Villages AOC but now has its own. Grenache, Syrah and only 1.1 g/litre residual sugar. Spicy, round, long and lovely. And just €10.99 #AldiWineClinic

It is a terrible plan and they are not sure of it yet themselves. Restricting traffic means restricting people but not you or the other able people. Tactial Urbanists aboundd and have no idea of Universal Design or disability inclusion.

.@MetEireann love the blight maps but can they be really that accurate. Am in South city Dublin and looks like we will avoid blight over next 4 days. Am I right?

5) The Emily case ironically is cited as reason for this, ignoring calls from @forsa_union_ie @IASW_IRL @AnneRabbitte & lessons from Brandon case to open up the medical model to different views. The failure to open these roles to nursing AND HSCPs is old culture in action.

4) An hour after Bernard spoke on the radio about the over-medicalised approach to care, Yvonne O Neill, Director of Community Operations wrote to all CHOS advising them to recruit safeguarding nurses. Old culture in action; medical model teaching medical model re safeguarding.

Panel discussions now kicking off. @BernardGloster welcoming the #partnershipPrinciples strongly stating that there isn't a hope of the health service achieving what it needs without a vibrant, well resourced and sustainable voluntary sector. #dialogueforum
