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,…
Analysis of patient satisfaction and ease of use of technology in a COPD virtual care at home project
Background: The COPD Virtual Care at Home study provides digital health tools to patients who would otherwise been admitted to hospital so that they can be treated with clinician led care at home. 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…
Mixed methods approach to understanding the attitudes of the public and professionals to digital health and social care

A process evaluation of ‘We Can Quit’

Media Representations of Science during the First Wave of the Covid-19 Pandemic
COVID-19 is arguably the most critical science communication challenge of a generation, yet comes in the wake of a purported populist turn against scientific expertise in western societies. This study advances understanding of science-society relations during the COVID-19 pandemic by analysing how science was represented in news and social media coverage of COVID-19 on the island of Ireland. Thematic analysis was performed on a dataset comprising…
Bordering on crisis
Results reveal clear public appetite for greater synchronisation of cross-border pandemic responses, emphasise the specific vulnerability of communities living near the border, and highlight the risk of long-term socio-political repercussions of border management decisions taken during the pandemic. Findings will inform implementation of pandemic responses and public health policies in jurisdictions that share a porous land border
