  • The Kent Family & Cork's Rising Experience
    The Kent Family & Cork’s Rising Experience By Mark Duncan In the telling of the Easter 1916 story, Cork appears only the margins. The reasons for this are not too hard to comprehend. Here was a county that had thought about mounting insurrection, then thought better of it. This failure to mobilise left an unpleasant aftertaste, becoming, for some at least, a source of abiding regret which bordered on embarrassment. It left behind it, Liam de Roiste, the Gaelic scholar and then leading local Irish Volunteer, wistfully recalled, a trail of ‘heart burning, disappointments, and some bitter feelings. The hour had come and we, in Cork, had done nothing.’1 In the circumstances, the decision to remain inactive – encouraged by the intervention by local bishop Daniel Colohan and Cork City Lord Mayor W. T. Butterfield - was an understandable one, wise even in view of the failed landing of German arms on board the Aud and the confusion created by the countermanding order of Eoin Mac Neill which delayed for a day, and altered completely, the character of the Rising that eventually took place.2 In any case, with Dublin planned as the operational focus of the Rising, Cork was hardly alone in remaining remote from the fray. Yes, trouble flared in Galway, in Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford and in Ashbourne, Co. Meath, but so few were these locations and so limited was the fighting that it served only to underline the failure of the insurgents to ignite a wider rebellion across provincial Ireland. For much of the country, the Rising of 1916 was experienced only in the heavy-handed and occasionally brutal backlash to it.

International Journal of Integrated Care, 17(5): A368, pp. 1-8, DOI: dx.doi.org/10.5334/ijic.3686 CONFERENCE ABSTRACT Community teams, specialist fall services and emergency department implementing an integrated regional falls risk assessment and prevention pathway 17th International Conference on Integrated Care, Dublin, 08-10 May 2017 Kieran Anthony O'Connor1, Sheena McHugh2, Tim Dukelow1, Olivia Wall3, Rosemary Murphy4, Anne O'Keeffe5, Finola Cronin4, Pat Barry6, Eileen Moriarty4 1: Mercy University Hospital & St Finbarr's Hospital Cork, Ireland; 2: University College Cork, Ireland; 3: St Finbarr's Hospital Cork, Ireland; 4: Community Healthcare organisation Area 4 Health Service Executive Ireland, Ireland; 5: Mercy University Hospital Cork, Ireland; 6: Cork University Hospital & St Finbarr's Hospital Cork, Ireland Introduction: In 2008, the national strategy for the prevention of falls and fractures in Ireland was published. In 2009, a detailed mapping exercise in our region demonstrated the size of our problem showing 4,680 emergency department attendances locally for falls annually, 21,500 acute bed-days used after falls and falls-related local health cost of €31 million. We had elements of good practice but services for falls management were neither coordinated nor integrated. Practice change: We took a whole-system approach to the delivery of services for falls in older people. Since 2012 a multidisciplinary clinician group has worked with regional management to improve falls services. Our project has four main work streams: building community capacity for fall risk assessment; re-engineering specialist fall services to improve access; standardising continuing care falls assessment; and promoting healthy ageing to prevent falls.
