Piloting home telepresence to support social connectedness among older adults in remote Irish communities
Background: Social support and social connectedness are key components of social health in later life, with reduced support linked to loneliness, social isolation, and adverse health outcomes. These challenges are intensified in remote and offshore communities, where geographic barriers limit social interaction and service access. In Ireland, nearly one in three adults over 50 experience emotional loneliness. While ICT-based interventions show pr…
COPD Virtual Care
Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous lung condition causing persistent, progressive airflow obstruction. It is the most common disease-specific cause of adult emergency hospital admissions in Ireland1. Virtual wards (VW) are a promising solution to optimize care for COPD patients 2. The VW aligns with the Slaintecare vision of delivering one universal health service, providing right care, in the right place,…

The Home Health project addresses the pressing challenge of delivering equitable healthcare to remote communities, with a specific focus on Clare Island, off the coast of Ireland. This isolated population faces unique barriers to accessing healthcare services, including limited availability of healthcare providers, logistical difficulties in reaching mainland facilities, and a aging population with its high prevalence of chronic conditions such a…

Approach: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a preventable and treatable disease, which is characterised by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The impact of COPD on healthcare facilities is profound, but it also has wider soci…
Margarita Von Lüttichau
This paper details Von Lüttichau's relationship with Carl Jung and Bill Wilson, co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), and her role as intermediary in the relationship between the two men. Her contribution within this mediator role has not been previously recognized but is an important factor in explaining how Jung became introduced to the AA 12-step format and validated the effectiveness of group work. After the Second World War, Von Lüttichau…
Male Street Prostitution in Dublin

Participants completed five psychometric tests, which indicated that all of the participants had above average levels of depression and suicidal ideation and low levels of self-esteem. This study found that candidates likely to becom…
