Absolutely agree with @HRCIreland A step forward: create clinical academic posts- clinicians working in healthcare settings are supported wholeheartedly to carry out clinical research. Supported by employer & academic institutions with patients at the centre.
Health Research Charities Ireland 2025 Position Paper acknowledges the vital role of research in transforming our health system & endorses the Chief Academic Officer Group's call for #Sláintecare to be underpinned by an Academic Health Science System. https://t.co/dDGgCh4N55

Healthcare professionals please remember how lonely and terrified many carers feel and how massively important every one of your interactions are
@LEAD_Coalition @steeletalk But it feels impossible at times... like now, when he is sent home with 5 different cancers, pain, bowel incontinence, hypertension, recent heart attack.. and more. I'm not equipped to deal with all this. We are both scared and I don't think I can do this anymore 😭😭😭😭😭 help

These stats reinforce the importance of HSCP teams to support older people at home & prevent illness /admission. Transformation is possible with clever implementation. Meet lots of people over 85 who want to proactively prevent deterioration through behavioural intervention etc
2% of the population (aged over 85) use this amount of hospital bed days because acute illness in this age group is accompanied by a physical and cognitive decline that will persist until remedied. Properly staffed offsite rehabilitation beds would transform our hospitals.

A powerful publication from @gerigoc and colleagues for anyone interested in #stroke in Ireland 👇 People with stroke can see & articulate clearly what is needed - co-ordinated, person-centred care & enough of it to make a difference. National roll-out of ESD urgently needed
Excited to have the 3rd publication from my @hrbireland funded PhD: Experiences and preferences of PWS and CGs, around supports provided at the transition from hospital-to-home https://t.co/52tVmIYubu
