Visions for the future
At the Cuisle Centre we offer a wide range of people diagnosed with cancer and their families. With the localisation of all cancer services in Ireland into just eight centres, in: Galway, Limerick, Cork, Waterford, and 4 centres in Dublin, there will be greater need for the Cuisle Centre and the service we can provide to the people of the midlands.
We strive to continue to provide a professional service and have recently employed a Nurse/ Manager to the centre. Cathriona has years of experience in the cancer field here in Ireland and also in America.
She has commited to:
- Increase the support services we provide to patients and their relatives.
- Maintain a strong link between the Cuisle Centre and the surrounding centre of excellence.
- Continue to provide educational public lectures on preventative health topics.
- Enhance new services. For example, Family Risk Assessment.
Breast Check
Breast check is operated at the Cuisle Centre from September '09. We see this as an ideal opportunity for people attending breast check to visit our centre and inform any relatives and friends of the services we provide.
