National Clinical Programme For the Assessment and Management of Patients Presenting to Emergency Departments following Self-Harm
(2016)
The National Clinical Programme for Mental Health Clinical Programme, HSE Clinical Strategy and Programmes Division.
Abstract:
In 2014, more than 11,000 people came to Irish general hospital Emergency Departments following self-harm. From the National Self-Harm Registry Ireland, we know that up to 15% of patients who present following self-harm will leave the Emergency Department (ED) without a bio-psycho-social (BPS) assessment of risk and need, and that 17% of patients will repeat their self-harm act within 3 months (Griffin et al, 2015). Self-harm is the single biggest risk factor for completed suicide, increasing the risk of suicide 40-fold, as compared to the general population (Owen et al, 2002; Carroll et al, 2014). Suicide is now the commonest cause of death for young men (aged 15-24 years) and middle aged men (45-54 years). Alcohol consumption is implicated in more than 37% of cases of self-harm (Griffin et al, 2015) and half of those who die by suicide have had a history of alcohol abuse in the final year of their lives (Arensman et al, 2013). Diversity with regard to assessment procedures and man...

'We are inclusive but are we being equal?' Challenges to Community National schools regarding religious diversity
(2018)
Mullally, Aiveen
Abstract:
The aim of this research is to explore the challenges being faced by Community National schools due to religious diversity. These schools were established by Minister Mary Hanafin in 2007 in response to the emerging reality of pluralism in Ireland. They are publicallymanaged state schools and the Education and Training Boards (ETB) are their patron. To date these schools largely cater for minority ethnic communities in Ireland with 58% of parents being of nationalities other than Irish (Department of Education 2016). The schools are multi-denominational and the ethos is inclusive, striving to ensure that the beliefs of all children are respected and celebrated. There are currently twelve schools in the sector. As these schools are a new model of governance, very little research on the schools has been conducted to date. This research was considered timely in order to assist with the development of these schools and to contribute to the educational debate regarding the place of relig...

Global Surgery – Informing National Strategies for Scaling Up Surgery in Sub-Saharan Africa.
(2018)
Gajewski, Jakub; Bijlmakers, Leon; Brugha, Ruairi F
Abstract:
<p>The original article is available at <a href="http://www.ijhpm.com">http://www.ijhpm.com</a></p>
<p>Surgery has the potential to address one of the largest, neglected burdens of disease in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), especially in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery (LCoGS) has provided a blueprint for a systems approach to making safe emergency and elective surgery accessible and affordable and has started to enable African governments to develop national surgical plans. This editorial outlines an important gap, which is the need for surgical systems research, especially at district hospitals which are the first point of surgical care for rural communities, to inform the implementation of country plans. Using the Lancet Commission as a starting point and illustrated by two European Union (EU) funded research projects, we point to the need for implementation research to develop and evaluate co...

The inclusion of delirium in version 2 of the National Early Warning Score will substantially increase the alerts for escalating levels of care: findings from a retrospective database study of emergency medical admissions in two hospitals
(2019)
Mohammed, Mohammed A.; Faisal, Muhammad; Richardson, Donald; Scally, Andrew; Howes, Robin; Beatson, Kevin; Irwin, Sally; Speed, Kevin
Abstract:
Background: The National Early Warning Score (NEWS) is being replaced with NEWS2 which adds 3 points for new confusion or delirium. We estimated the impact of adding delirium on the number of medium/high level alerts that are triggers to escalate care. Methods: Analysis of emergency medical admissions in two acute hospitals (York Hospital (YH) and Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust hospitals (NH)) in England. Twenty per cent were randomly assigned to have delirium. Results: The number of emergency admissions (YH: 35584; NH: 35795), mortality (YH: 5.7%; NH: 5.5%), index NEWS (YH: 2.5; NH: 2.1) and numbers of NEWS recorded (YH: 879193; NH: 884072) were similar in each hospital. The mean number of patients with medium level alerts per day increased from 55.3 (NEWS) to 69.5 (NEWS2), a 25.7% increase in YH and 64.1 (NEWS) to 77.4 (NEWS2), a 20.7% increase in NH. The mean number of patients with high level alerts per day increased from 27.3 (NEWS) to 34.4 (NEWS2), a 26.0...

Vote Yes for Common Sense Citizenship: Immigration and the Paradoxes at the Heart of Ireland's "Céad Míle Fáilte" (NIRSA) Working Paper Series. No. 30

Vote Yes for Common Sense Citizenship: Immigration and the Paradoxes at the Heart of Ireland's "Céad Míle Fáilte" (NIRSA) Working Paper Series. No. 30
(2006)
Crowley, Una; Gilmartin, Mary; Kitchin, Rob
Abstract:
In this paper we examine the discursive production and employment of, what Irish politicians term, ‘commonsense citizenship’ as a means of addressing and regulating new immigration to Ireland, and in re-defining Irishness and Irish citizenship (culminating in a national Citizenship referendum in June 2004). We argue that commonsense citizenship is employed in such a way as to fix and essentialise Irishness, thus highlighting the threatening other, and to construct immigrants as suspect, untrustworthy, and deserving of Ireland’s ‘hospitality’ only in limited, prescribed ways or not at all. Through examining six troubling paradoxes we reveal slippages, contradictions and nuances that commonsense citizenship works to deny and erase, but nevertheless work to undermine its essentialism and injustices. In so doing, we argue these paradoxes open ways to rethink Irish citizenship, and how such a notion is produced discursively.

A Haunted Landscape: Housing and Ghost Estates in Post-Celtic Tiger Ireland (NIRSA) Working Paper Series. No. 59.
(2010)
Kitchin, Rob; Gleeson, Justin; Keaveney, Karen; O'Callaghan, Cian
Abstract:
In this working paper, we examine the creation of ‘a haunted landscape’ – the recent boom and the bust of the Irish housing market, and the creation of a new phenomenon, ‘ghost estates’. We draw on and analyze numerous different government and industry datasets to provide a rigorous evidence base for our conclusions. What the data reveal is a pattern of development that ran counter to what one would have expected or hoped for - those local authorities that had the most vacant stock in 2006, subsequently built the most new housing, now have the highest surpluses of stock, and have the most land zoned for future use. Essentially, a number of local authorities did not heed good planning guidelines and regional and national objectives; conduct sensible demographic profiling of potential demand; or take account of the fact that much of the land zoned lacks essential services such as water and sewerage treatment plants, energy supply, public transport or roads. Instead, permissions and zo...

Lindsay Crawford's 'Impossible Demand'? The Southern Irish Dimension of the Independent Orange Project (NIRSA) Working Paper Series. No. 5
(2002)
Murray, Peter
Abstract:
The Magheramorne Manifesto of the Independent Orange Order has been hailed as a bold attempt from an unlikely quarter to positively address the sectarian divisions and regional polarisation of early 20th century Ireland. But the Order's leading light, Lindsay Crawford, has also been indicted for formulating an 'empty radicalism' which demanded changes in the field of education that it was impossible for the Catholic community to accept. This working paper reassesses Crawford's ideological project in the light of hitherto underused sources of evidence. It highlights convergence between Crawford's thinking and that of 'Irish Ireland' activists in movements such as the Gaelic League and Sinn Fein. It argues that heterodox educational views were prevalent to a significant extent among the Irish Irelanders to whom Crawford looked for a positive response to his national regeneration project. The case is also made that, in the absence of unanimous accepta...

South Dublin County Profile (NIRSA) Working Paper Series. No. 14

Abstract:
The main objective of this report is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the current situation in order to assist South Dublin County Development Board in the preparation of its strategy for economic, social and cultural development over the next ten years. The city and environs of Dublin now extend over a very extensive area, exceeding the boundaries of the Dublin administrative units. It represents a complex and dynamic functional entity with roles as both the national capital and the principal international gateway for the country. Since the mid 1990s the old county Dublin has been divided into four units for purposes of public administration, within each of which a City/County Development Board was established in 1999. As each Board is required to prepare a strategy for economic, social and cultural development, the approach adopted here is to provide an analysis that takes account of the wider context while also providing detailed small area analysis for the wards/DEDs of ...

Abstract:
The main objective of this report is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the current situation in order to assist the City Development Board in the preparation of its strategy for economic, social and cultural development over the next ten years. The city of Dublin now extends over a very extensive area, far exceeding the boundary of Dublin Corporation. It represents a complex and dynamic functional entity with roles as both the national capital and the principal international gateway for the country. Since the early 1990’s the old county Dublin has been divided into four units for purposes of public administration, within each of which a City/County Development Board was established in 1999. As each Board is required to prepare a strategy for economic, social and cultural development, the approach adopted here is to provide an analysis that takes account of the wider context while also providing detailed small area analysis for the wards/DEDs of the CDB area.

Pensions: What Women Want. A model of pensions that guarantees independence
(2008)
Murphy, Mary
Abstract:
The Government published the Green Paper on Pensions in October 2007 and called for a widespread debate on the future development of old age pensions informed both by the Green Paper and the suite of reports published by the Pensions Board. In this report, offered as a contribution to the emerging debate on pensions, the National Women’s Council of Ireland (NWCI) sets out its views on the policy issues involved. It does this against a background in which women’s needs and perspectives in relation to pensions have not yet been specifically debated. In short, the report aims to engender the Irish pension debate. The recommendations made in this paper are not only beneficial for women but can also form part of an antipoverty strategy, in that they are also beneficial for the many low income groups who experience cumulative labour market disadvantage and a subsequent high risk of poverty in old age.

A Woman’s Model For Social Welfare Reform

A Woman’s Model For Social Welfare Reform
(2003)
Murphy, Mary
Abstract:
The National Women’s Council of Ireland (NWCI) commissioned this research because of its concern that the social welfare system continues to deny women full independence. Even now, in 2003, the system reinforces a notion of women as adult dependants, rather than as individuals entitled to benefits in their own right. Furthermore, the social welfare system fails to give adequate recognition to women’s unpaid caring work. The consequences of this failure are the higher-than-average risks of poverty experienced by certain categories of women who are, or have been, engaged in caring work for long periods, particularly lone parents and older women. We are seeking in this research to advance a model of social welfare reform that promotes the economic independence of women within the social welfare code and enables individual (non-derived) rights to social welfare. The NWCI strongly advocates a rights approach that recognises economic independence within the family as an essential precurso...

Cross-Border Population Accessibility and Regional Growth: An Irish Border Region Case-Study NIRSA Working Paper Series. No. 52.
(2009)
Curran, Declan; Gleeson, Justin
Abstract:
This paper calculates and maps relative population accessibility indices at a national and regional level for the island of Ireland over the period 1991-2002 and assesses whether the changing nature of the border between the Republic and Northern Ireland as it becomes more porous has impacted on the growth of the Irish border region over that time period. A spatial econometric analysis is the undertaken to assess the economic consequences of increased economic integration between Northern Ireland and the Republic. Neoclassical β-convergence regression analysis is employed, with the population accessibility indices used to capture the changing nature of the Irish border.

Communities, Schools and the Diffusion of Healthy Lifestyle Promotion Messages: Experiences and the Results of the Kilkenny Health Project (NIRSA) Working Paper Series No. 48
(2009)
Murray, Peter
Abstract:
Between 1985 and 1992 County Kilkenny was the site of an evaluated community intervention project which aimed to reduce the population's heart disease burden by promoting the adoption of a healthy lifestyle. One form taken by this intervention was work within primary and second level schools as well as with community groups and adult education providers. This paper analyses data collected in the project’s termination survey on the direct awareness impact on adult respondents of interventions undertaken in collaboration with community groups and/or adult education providers. It also examines the indirect awareness impact on adult respondents of the project’s school-based activities The findings are discussed in the light of the set of national health strategy statements published by the Department of Health after the completion of the Kilkenny project.

Grounding Waste: Towards a Sociology of Waste Networks (NIRSA) Working Paper Series. No. 18
(2002)
Fagan, Honor
Abstract:
This article contributes towards building a sociology of waste. It advances a network analysis framework to understand the position and role of the various actors involved in waste governance in Ireland, North and South. It is the state at the EU and national levels that has sought to deal with waste within the competing sustainability and competitiveness paradigms. However, this article also argues for the critical importance of local action around waste management (incinerators in particular) in developing a sociology of waste. The issue of waste is seen in parallel terms to that of money as a new global fluid, which, nevertheless, needs to be governed. A major argument of the article is that we need to take a grounded globalisation approach to build insights into networks of waste and networked political processes of waste governance.

Cross-Regional Equity in Health Care Funding (NIRSA) Working Paper Series No. 3

Cross-Regional Equity in Health Care Funding (NIRSA) Working Paper Series No. 3
(2002)
Conniffe, Denis; Bond, Derek
Abstract:
In Ireland as in many other countries, much health care provision is State funded and State provided. Equity, in the sense of equality of 'treatment' for individuals with the same health needs irrespective of their geographical locatins, or incomes, has been, and is, very much stressed as an appropriate policy objective. However, health care delivery in Ireland (and in some other countries included the UK) operates through reginally based Health Boards responsible for provision in their own regions. This implies mechanisms for funding allocations to Boards that allow for the corresponding regional needs, but the choice of mechanism is not at all a simple or non-contestious topic. It is important though, and so a very appropriate topic for research by the National Institute for Regional and Spatial Anallysis. This Working Paper is at least a first step in a relevant investigation. Following much research, formulae have beeen developed in the UK for the allocation of ...

Reshaping Disability Policy Making in Italy: The ‘Focal Point’, the National Observatory on the Situation of Persons with Disabilities, and... the Absence of Regions?
(2012)
Ferri, Delia
Abstract:
On 30 March 2007, Italy signed the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and ratified it by Law 18/2009. Through this, Italy has committed itself to reforming the structure of its own policy making process. It seems that Italy has taken its international commitment seriously, in compliance with Art. 117(1) of the Italian Constitution, for the last years have witnessed attempts to ‘re-imagine’ the configuration of the whole ‘institutional’ disability domain. It is nonetheless surprising that the efforts at national level are not counterbalanced by identical commitments in the Regions (despite their important powers in the disability domain). This essay aims to investigate the most intriguing aspects of current disability policy making, without neglecting empirical insights and dropping some comparative hints. This article is divided into six sections. After a succinct introduction, the main features of the Convention will be recalled. Then, the CRPD will be ...

A Marshall Aid Technical Assistance Team Member Refused a US Entry Visa: The 1951 Case of Irish Trade Unionist John McAteer
(2015)
Murray, Peter
Abstract:
In October 1951 John McAteer, who had been selected by the Irish Trade Union Congress (ITUC) as a member of a team that was to visit the United States under the auspices of Ireland’s Marshall Aid Technical Assistance (TA) programme, had his application for an entry visa rejected. This paper examines this episode of Ireland’s Marshall Plan participation experience drawing upon files in the Irish National Archives. It begins by tracing the difficulties the 1945 split between rival Irish trade union congresses created for efforts to foster joint employer-trade union action within Ireland’s Marshall Aid TA programme. It then turns to the manner in which one of the union congresses, the ITUC, selected the members of its team to visit the USA and the issues raised by the selection for part of its own support base as well as for agencies of the Irish and US governments involved in Marshall Aid administration. Once McAteer had been refused a visa the ITUC decided to combine protest at his e...
