It's an honour to be chairing the Commission on Care for Older People and I look forward to working with my fellow members. Sincere thanks to Minister @MaryButlerTD for joining us yesterday and for her inspirational words as we begin our task.
Minister @MaryButlerTD convened the first meeting of the new Commission on Care for Older People. The Commission will focus on how best Ireland’s health and social care services can meet the needs of our older population and support positive aging. https://t.co/HK84JZEmgI

Velma Harkins speaks about the impact of complaints and GPs minding themselves - so important. GPs have so much care and compassion for others and they must practise the same for themselves.
