"Sometimes work just fucking sucks"That's what David Strano said back on the Decline episode, and if you're not careful, saying smart things gets you volun-told for a guest appearance on the pod. David's a former touring roadie turned HSE director. That basically means he knows a lot about both parts of the PRS podcast, so the boys are considering just handing over the reins. Shit, he even knows what episode number we're on.It's a rare episode when there's not a NOFX song title involved, but this one goes way back in time with The Clash's "Career Opportunities" as a reference to shit jobs, success, and just getting things done in the face of a lot of competing goals.Since David has a real job (even closer to the actual work than Ron), we had a cool opportunity to talk about workplace safety as it's seen and lived with by folks doing work, especially those at the front line.David did 20 years of touring before Covid, and that's pretty rad. Except for the safety part. Nobody actually does that, apparently. It's the wild west, as David says, and shit happens as you might expect.There's a big difference between compliance and looking for high-performance safety, but the reality is that compliance is still important, even if it isn't the complete answer. The boys talk a little bit about the difference between awareness and something mattering, too. And tolerability - like the idea that if you choose to work here in a high-risk industry, you've basically said you accept some level of risk.Later in the discussion, all of those ideas tie together in a conversation about where expectations from customers fit in. Priorities - like getting a facility opened on time - mean safety drifts back to the old school view of production vs. protection, even when we're focused on more contemporary ideas. FSMM isn't meant to be the real deal, but there are times when it sure looks and feels like it is.Anyway, it's an episode focused on how tradeoffs materialize at work, how having multiple folks with checkbooks shapes safety, and where compliance fits into discussions about front-line work grappling with safety as an academic abstraction.Have fun, punkers!  DISCLAIMER: You probably shouldn't take anything in this podcast too seriously. Punk Rock Safety is for entertainment only. It's definitely not a replacement for professional or legal advice, and the fair amount of piss-taking, shithousery, and general ridiculousness ought to clue you into the fact that no one - and no organization - is endorsing (or un-endorsing, if that's a thing) any products, ideas, or other things. Except NOFX. We definitely endorse them.Oh, and give your money to Punk Rock Saves Lives. They're a rad organization that works in mental health, addiction, and human rights.

In this episode I sit down with DJ Nikki Hayes — whose real name is Eimear O'Keeffe.

The Department of Health has been requested to establish a cancer patient advocate in Clare. Although the HSE does have a Patient Advocacy Liaison Service and a patient advocate role in the MidWest, neither are specifically dedicated for cancer treatment. Renewed calls have been made for a role to be established to ease pressure on cancer charities here and to guide patients through the processes of accessing chemo and radiotherapy. HSE Regional Health Forum West Member Ennis Fianna Fáil Councillor Antoinette Baker Bashua says it's not good enough that the service is currently being provided by a charity.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, or DMD as it is commonly known, is a progressive neuromuscular disease that causes the weakening of muscles over time.It affects almost exclusively boys, with symptoms typically appearing between the ages of one and three.

Children operated on when there was no need; industrial springs being used instead of approved medical devices; a doctor diverting children to his own private clinic leading to them facing dangerous treatment delays; and a poisonous work culture on the wards – these are some of the issues that have emerged in our children's hospitals.And that's before the not so little matter of the massive budgetary and time overruns that plague the unfinished national children's hospital.The body tasked with overseeing the healthcare of the nation's children is Children's Health Ireland.It was founded in 2019 and in just six years has faced a mounting number of controversies and scandals.Questions are now being asked about the ability of CHI to do its job.And that's a job that will get all the more complicated when the children's hospitals, each with their own culture and way of doing things, have to merge under one roof when the new hospital opens.CHI is funded by the HSE and answers to it, so what role does the State's healthcare body play in all this? And what is Minister for Health Jennifer Carroll McNeill going to do as CHI lurches from crisis to crisis?Irish Times health correspondent Shauna Bowers explains.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

It's claimed Clare children with disabilities are being forced to travel well beyond the county bounds for basic care. It follows revelations that two funded dietitian posts for the West Clare Children's Disability Network Team have remained unfilled for the past 18 months, The roles concerned involve Senior Dietitian post and one Staff Grade Dietitian post that would normally assist children aged 0-18 years.
