RIP Aggrey Benjamin Irons (18 Oct 1951 – 23 May 2026) #Jamaican psychiatrist, medical leader, public health advocate renowned for his contributions to mental health services in the #Caribbean.

Born in #Kingston to Luther Irons, insurance executive, and Laurel Irons, teacher, Irons was educated at Alpha Kindergarten Preparatory School and St. George’s College (graduating in 1967). He earned his M.B., B.S. from the University of the West Indies (UWI) in 1974, winning the Aaron Matalon Prize in Psychiatry, and completed postgraduate qualifications (D.P.M. and D.M. Psych) in 1979. Additional training took him to Loughborough University (UK) and Harvard University.

Irons served as Senior Medical Officer at Bellevue Hospital, the Caribbean’s largest mental health facility, for over 21 years starting in 1983. He transformed it into a more efficient clinical unit and earlier directed childhood and adolescent psychiatric services. In private practice from 1976, he maintained a consulting role at Medicentre and Health Care Limited. He was a past president of both the Medical Association of Jamaica and the Jamaica Psychiatric Association, a member of the Medical Council of Jamaica, and an International Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. He published papers and monographs on psychiatric topics and advised on mental health policy and legal reform.

A dedicated public servant, Irons chaired the Jamaica Coalition for Tobacco Control, served on the CHASE Fund board, and supported institutions including the University Hospital of the West Indies and Consie Walters Cancer Care Hospice. He was part of Jamaica’s medical teams for the 1996 and 2000 Olympics and acted as a certified boxing judge and referee. In 2012, he received the Commander of the Order of Distinction (CD) for his psychiatric work.

Irons was known for his wit, media appearances on mental health and relationships, and holistic approach to wellness. Married to Jacqueline since 1975, he had two sons and grandchildren. He died at age 74 after a period of illness, leaving a lasting legacy in Jamaican and regional psychiatry.

Question of the day and one to journal to…

“Who are you uninterrupted?”

[Ryan Cunningham @rocinspired]

Freedom is losing the fear of one’s impending mortality. The challenge therefore is to accept it as a given.
