My understanding is that public health nurse services in Drumkeeran are to be reduced to a part-time basis from late November 2018.

Public health nursing is a crucial community service that many older and potentially vulnerable people rely on for their day-to-day health needs. Any cut to this is bad news for the community.

I am making representations to the HSE and to local politicians on this issue. I also urge any of you who share my concern to make representations as well.
