Today we remember Garret FitzGerald on what would have been his 100th birthday.

A principled leader who helped shape modern Ireland, championed reconciliation as well our place at the heart of Europe and the international community, and believed deeply in politics as public service. His legacy continues to matter.

Great to be invited to speak on the panel on #WorldCancerDay discussing the New Cancer Dashboard for Ireland, by the Swedish Institute of Health Economics and commissioned by MSD Ireland. This report highlighted many areas of how our health services approach cancer treatment in Ireland, from governance to risks of cancer and survivorship. 🏥
 
This report highlights what the health service does well, what it can improve, and how we compare with our European counterparts in care, funding, and more. If you wish to read the report published by the Swedish Institute of Health Economics today, see the link below:

I raised the issue in the Dáil of the 24 additional beds at Mallow General Hospital that have already been funded and the urgent need to bring them into use.

With continued pressure on Mallow General Hospital and Cork University Hospital, opening these beds as soon as possible would make a real difference for patients and staff ⏱️

I will continue to push for timely delivery so funded beds are opened without delay. 💪
