Six hospitals in the Mid-West have entered a single management regime in which both doctors and HSE officials will play lead roles. The grouping of the hospitals — the Mid-West Regional, Regional Maternity, Croom Orthopaedic, Nenagh General, Ennis General at St John’s — moves them one step further down the road towards the establishment of a hospital trust.
The lead clinical director is Professor Pierce Grace, a Kilkenny-born vascular surgeon involved with the graduate entry medical school at the University of Limerick. The clinical directors include Dr John Kennedy, Dr Con Cronin, Dr Bryan Kenny, and Dr Roy K Philip. The four HSE officials are managers Frank Keane, maternal and child health; Paula Cussen Murphy, medicine; John Doyle, peri-operative; Mary Donnellan O’Brien, diagnostics. (Examiner) >
