I 1978 tháinig an nuacht amach go bheir an airm agus na gardaí ar drong a ghoid 400 mhíle punt ó veain I Luimneach agus beir siad orthu ó eangach. I 2000 tháinig sé amach go raibh rátaí iasacht tithíochta ag dul suas ach go mbeadh an praghas de thí ag laghdú don chéad uair I 5 bhliain. I 2001 chuaigh an fhoireann iománaíocht Tiobraid Árann chuig cluiche ceannais na Mumhan agus bhuaigh siad I gcoinne an Chláir le pointe amháin. Ghortaíodh John Leahy I rith an chluiche agus ní raibh siad cinnte ag an am an mbeadh sé chun imir arís an bhliain sin. I 2010 d'oscail bóthair nua san Aonach Urmhumhan in ainneoin na rudaí a dúirt na daoine a raibh ina chónaí ann. Ainmnithe Ormond Keep Road, bhí sé ag dul idir cúpla eastát tithíochta agus bhí sé páirteach den phlean nua a bhí ag comhairle baile an tAonach Urmhumhan.

I 2007 bhí George Michael an chéad duine chun ceolchoirm a bheith acu ag an stad nua Wembley I Londain agus bhí dhá cheolchoirm aige ar a turas 25 Live Tour. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Michael J Fox I gCeanada I 1961 agus rugadh aisteoir Johnny Depp I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1963 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 2ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 sheol an Aire Sláinte Charles Haughey scéim ar leith chun cabhrú le daoine óga sna cathracha a raibh riosca orthu damáiste a dhéanamh dá shaol. I 2000 bhí na hairí ón thuaidh faoi ionsaí ó na n-antoisceach ó dhá thaobh. I 1998 maraíodh 15 eallach ar fheirm I Toomevara de bharr go raibh toirneach agus tintreach ann. Bhí na heallaí ar foscadh faoi chrann seiceamar nuair a bhí sé ag cur báistí go trom agus thit an crann orthu. I 2006 bhí rangú san Aonach Urmhumhan sa tábla IBAL go hiontach mar chuaigh siad ó 'go leor bruscar' go 'níl aon bhruscar ann'. Chuaigh siad ó 51ú háit chuig 13ú háit. Sin Sonique le It Feels So Good – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2000 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1973 chuaigh Paul McCartney chuig uimhir a haon I Meiriceá lena albam Red Rose Speedway agus fuair sé uimhir a haon lena hamhrán My Love agus d'fhan sé ann ar feadh ceithre seachtaine. I 1984 fuair Wham! A chéad uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena amhrán Wake Me Up Before You Go Go. Scríobh George Michael an t-amhrán agus bhí sé páirteach den bhanna cheoil. An inspioráid don amhrán ná nuair a scríobh Andrew Ridgeley nóta dá thuismitheoirí ag rá 'wake me up before you go' agus scríobh sé 'up' dhá uair agus mar sin scríobh sé an teideal 'wake me up before you go go'. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Wentworth Miller sa Bhreatain I 1972 agus rugadh aisteoir Ethan Slater I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1992 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé.

Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 2nd of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1978: health minister Charles Haughey had launched a unique scheme to help young people in cities who may have been at risk of becoming delinquents. 2000: the norths power sharing ministers were under attack last night from extremists on both sides. 1998 - FIFTEEN cattle on a farm in Toomevara were killed in a severe thunder and lightning storm which struck North Tipperary. The cattle were sheltering in a hill field under a sycamore tree from a heavy downpour of rain when the "act of God" occurred.  2006 -Nenagh's ranking in the national IBAL league made a dramatic improvement, rising from the categorization of ‘Litter Blackspot' to ‘Litter Free Status'. rising from 51st place out of 57 towns to 13th in the latest survey.  That was Sonique with It Feels So Good – the biggest song on this day in 2000 Onto music news on this day In 1973 Paul McCartney had both the No.1 positions on the US charts when 'Red Rose Speedway', went to the top of the album chart and 'My Love', started a four week run as the No.1 single. 1984 Wham! had their first UK No.1 with 'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go.' Written and produced by George Michael, one half of the duo. Inspiration for the song was a scribbled note left by his Wham! partner Andrew Ridgeley for Andrew's parents, originally intended to read "wake me up before you go" but with "up" accidentally written twice, so Ridgeley wrote "go" twice on purpose. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Wentworth Miller was born in the UK in 1972 and actor Ethan Slater was born in America on this day in 1992 and this is some of the stuff he has done.

36 elective procedures were cancelled at Ennis General last year due to overcrowding at University Hospital Limerick. New HSE figures show that 75% of cancellations occurred last August, when some day surgeries and outpatient appointments were deferred at Ennis, Nenagh, Croom and St. Johns due to high presentations at UHL's Emergency Department. There was only one instance in Ennis last year where a service had to be cancelled due to a lack of available bed spaces. Clare Fine Gael TD Joe Cooney says improvements are needed.

Throughout the nineteenth-century, Ireland went through an evolving relationship with the punishment of capital offences, leaving behind some of the more brutal methods of the 1700s in favour of long prison sentences, or even transportation to Australia. However, one of the most popular punishments for murder remained an encounter with the hangman. This month, Conor takes us to Nenagh on the eve of the Great Famine, where the people of the town witnessed the first multiple execution event held in front of the relatively new Nenagh Prison....

Tá na mílte daoine gan cumhacht leictreach agus soláthar uisce in áiteanna éagsúla sa tír mar gheall ar an sioc mór.

The new commission-free Love Tipperary Gift Card has gone live in the county with over 190 businesses accepting the card, including national brands and independent businesses. Tipperary businesses say the new gift card will drive footfall in local towns, take 'shop local' to the next level and provide an easy way to reward staff. County Tipperary Chamber and Tipperary County Council are behind the newly launched county-wide gift card for the towns of Carrick-On-Suir, Clonmel, Cahir, Cashel, Tipperary Town, Thurles, Templemore, Nenagh and Roscrea. Available to buy online as physical gift cards or digital e-cards, a range of shops, restaurants, salons, attractions and services are participating. Edel Kennedy is the owner of ladieswear boutique Edel's Boutique in Nenagh and said the gift card is a positive move for the county: "Nenagh is a thriving market town with many wonderful restaurants, coffee shops and of course boutiques. It's a shopper's paradise, we have it all! Nenagh's success can definitely be attributed to the fact that so many of the businesses are managed and run by the owners. We really do care about our customers and our town. Edel's Boutique has been in Nenagh for 19 years and has seen so many changes in that time, including plenty of challenges for small business owners. "The gift card is a fantastic initiative because it keeps money in the community. Small businesses have to pay commission to accept the national gift cards which is tough when margins are already tight. But the Love Tipperary Gift Card is commission free. As we approach the Christmas trading period, we as business owners are very excited for the launch of the gift card. We feel positive that we can take 'shop local' to the next level and put Tipperary on the map. "In Ireland, we have such a great incentive to reward staff tax free through the Small Benefit Exemption scheme and what better way to reward staff than the Love Tipperary Gift Card, encouraging employees to shop in the county, driving footfall and helping create thriving towns where people want to live and work. It's a no-brainer for organisations." A unique feature of the gift card is that it can be spent with both national brands and independent businesses, including New Look in Clonmel. Aisling O'Meara is the store manager and said: "New Look in Clonmel is one of the most profitable in Ireland but even as a national brand, we'd noticed a drop in footfall and were keen to look at initiatives to increase both footfall and dwell time in Clonmel. When we heard about the Love Tipperary Gift Card, we said 'this is amazing and how do we get involved'. "Even though New Look is a big brand, we're all local businesses staffed by local people and we all have pride in our town. By working together and backing each other through the gift card, we can help our town and our businesses to succeed. "The great thing about the Love Tipperary Gift Card is that it has to be spent in Tipperary county and will encourage people to visit Clonmel and other towns. I think the choice on offer with the card is really good. People will look at where to spend it, visit one business, and likely stay to try others. We have a reward and recognition scheme at our store, and this year we will buy the Love Tipperary Gift Card because it puts the money we invest in rewards back into our town." 5th generation Tipperary Town business O'Rahelly Sports is also participating. Bryan O'Rahelly said the gift card promotes the county: "The fact that people will have a card in their wallet - physical or digital - that has Tipperary on it is brilliant. It's a bit of advertising for our county and it's a push for people to shop local who might not have otherwise. It also means it's less likely to be forgotten about. "Some of the national gift cards have a 10% commission for businesses to accept the card whereas the Love Tipperary Gift Card has no commission, so when people buy the Love Tipperary Gift Card as a present, or orga...

County Tipperary Chamber and Tipperary County Council are collaborating to introduce a county-wide gift card to champion 'shop local' and boost the local economy. The Tipperary Gift Card is set to launch pre-Christmas as part of efforts to drive footfall and spend across the county and in the towns of Carrick-On-Suir, Clonmel, Cahir, Cashel, Tipperary Town, Thurles, Templemore, Nenagh and Roscrea. Once launched, the Tipperary Gift Card will only be able to be spent with registered businesses, in person, locking spend into the county. There will be a 0% commission rate for the first 12 months for Tipperary businesses to accept the new gift card, keeping 100% of the transaction within the business. All types of businesses are eligible to accept the card, including retail, hospitality, leisure and tourism, health/beauty and services, with no additional equipment required. Businesses don't have to be a County Tipperary Chamber member to be a part of the new gift card. Michelle Aylward, Chief Executive at County Tipperary Chamber said: "Local businesses are the backbone of our Tipperary communities and now is the time for us to work together on a single shop local gift card for the whole county that will be transformative for our towns. "The Tipperary Gift Card is a phenomenal opportunity for Tipperary businesses to bring people through their doors with money to spend. With the zero commission to accept the card, there is no reason for a business not to be a part of this gift card. And as all types of consumer facing businesses can accept the card, it spreads out the benefit across Tipperary. It will provide tangible support for businesses and help to pull our communities together." Sinead Carr, C.E. of Tipperary County Council stated: "The availability of such an opportunity in County Tipperary is something I have long envisaged and I am particularly delighted to see that it will be in place for the Christmas 2024 period. Registering to accept the forthcoming Tipperary Gift Card is straightforward and cost-free. As we approach the key Christmas trading period, being a part of the gift card is a route to new revenue and new customers." The Tipperary Gift Card will be part of the multi award winning Town & City Gift Card concept active across Ireland in Ballinrobe, Carndonagh, Drogheda, Letterkenny, Sligo and Waterford. Over €7 million Town & City Gift Cards were sold in Ireland in 2023, with around 80% of sales to organisations for staff rewards and incentives. Colin Munro is the managing director of Miconex and said: "What makes the Tipperary Gift Card unique is the technology behind it. The card is Mastercard backed so the balance gets automatically updated when customers spend. Customers can check their balance in moments using the QR code on the gift card. And there will be a digital version of the card that customers can upload to digital wallets. This all makes the process of accepting the gift card friction-free for businesses, and that is vital." Cathaoirleach of Tipperary County Council Cllr Declan Burgess stated: "The collaboration between County Tipperary Chamber and Tipperary County Council on the forthcoming county-wide Tipperary Gift Card is a fantastic example of organisations joining together for the benefit of their communities both socially and economically. When we look at the success of Town & City Gift Card programmes across Ireland, the potential of the new gift card to keep Tipperary money in Tipperary towns is considerable." See more stories here.

Clarke Report Copperfastens Need For Ennis ED Insists Clare TD

Clare's Government TD claims the findings of the Clarke Report have copperfastened the need for the expedited delivery of a new Emergency Department in Ennis. It comes as the latest report into the death of Shannon Teenager Aoife Johnston at University Hospital Limerick has determined the circumstances in which she died were "almost certainly avoidable". The fundamental issue according to the former Justice Clarke's report was the delay in treatment provided to Aoife Johnston. The Shannon teenager presented at ED at 17:39pm on Friday, December 17th with a letter from an out of hours GP service querying sepsis, but would not receive the appropriate medication for another 12 hours. National Sepsis guidelines stipulate that treatment should take place within an hour, at this point Aoife had just been triaged and upon triage, Aoife was sent to Zone A of the Emergency Department, where sepsis forms were not kept. This was due to the "grossly overcrowded" nature of the Resus area, and according to Justice Clarke this "undoubtedly contributed to the fact that it appears that none of the nurses or doctors in Zone A were aware of Aoife's condition. Ennistymon-based MidWest Hospital Campaign Spokesperson, Marie McMahon, whose husband Tommy Wynne passed away after waiting 36 hours on a trolley at UHL in 2018, feels elected representatives have failed to learn lessons from consistently poor patient outcomes at Dooradoyle and says a new Emergency Department in Ennis is desperately needed. On the night of December 17th, there were 191 patients in attendance at the ED, who were looked after by just 19 staff nurses and one clinical nurse manager, with breaks covered by nurses not trained in emergency medicine. In Zone A, where Aoife was originally sent, there were 67 patients who were tended to by just 4 nurses. Justice Clarke concluded in his report that unless bed capacity is addressed at UHL, the ED will regularly be under pressure and the risk of re-occurrence will inevitably be present. The investigation also referenced the 2008 Horwath Report, which paved the way for the closure of the A&Es at Ennis, Nenagh and St.John's in favour of a centre of excellence with increased inpatient bed capacity at UHL. Justice Clarke noted these beds did not materialise and led to clear consequent pressure at UHL and although a HIQA review is underway to determine if another ED is needed in the region, the results are not expected until next summer. Clare Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe, who's a member of the Oireachtas Health Committee believes the people of the MidWest will remain second class citizens until a new ED is provided in Ennis, and he says the findings of the Clarke report copperfasten the need for this process to be expedited. Meanwhile, the solicitor for the family of Aoife Johnston says they're still waiting for answers. Six people are facing a disciplinary process, but their identities have not been revealed. The Johnston's solicitor, Damien Tansey says there were flaws with the independent investigation.

Submission Lodged With HIQA For Ennis General To Be Upgraded To Model 3 Hospital

Clare FM - Podcasts

A submission calling for Ennis General Hospital to be equipped with an Emergency Department has been lodged with the Health Information and Quality Authority. It comes as HIQA has commenced it's indpendent review to determine reforms to emergency and urgent care reform in the MidWest. Clare FM's Daragh Dolan Reports === The 30-page document compiled by the Friends of Ennis Hospital Campaign group claims "the fastest, most cost efficient and logical way to provide a second ED in the Midwest region is by upgrading Ennis from Model 2 to Model 3 status." The submission points to failures of the HSE's reconfiguration fifteen years ago, which resulted in the closure of A&Es at Ennis, Nenagh and St.Johns in favour of a centre of excellence at University Hospital Limerick. Overcrowding has grown exponentially at UHL since, rising from 2,422 patients being recorded on trolleys in 2009 to a record high of 21,445 last year. According to HIQA, UHL operated at 105% capacity in 2022 and last year the hospital was forced to implement it's overcrowding protocol every single day. The submission claims that existing healthcare studies show the longer a patient remains on a trolley the higher the risk of death or permanent lifelong health issues, while on February 7th this year, a new overcrowding record of 150 patients on trolleys was set at UHL. In 2023, a total of 239 patients died at the Emergency Department in UHL, which is 20% above that of any other hospital on the Western Seaboard. The document also shows that in the MidWest, there is just one ED to serve a population of over 431,059, while in the next most affected healthcare area of Cork and Kerry, theres one ED for every 246,871. The campaign group then goes on to outline why a new ED shoule be located in Ennis General specifically, rather than in Limerick, Tipperary or on a greenfield site. It points to the fact that Clare is the only county in Munster and the only county in the country with an Internantional Airport not to have an ED and that over 1million tourists visit local attractions annually. The presentation also shows the Community Healthcare Network of West Clare which is predominantly rural, has the greatest population of any CHN in the region at over 76,000 and that the majority of it's population are living beyond a 45-minute travel time to UHL, which it claims would be rectified with an ED in Ennis. Last year, Ennis also had by far the highest number of attendances at it's Medical Assessment Unit, with over 7,000 patients treated; which is more than the combined total of Nenagh and St.Johns. The Friends of Ennis Hospital Group also points to the cost efficiencies of upgrading the existing hospital to a model 3, outlining that since 2021, the HSE has invested €3.3m in its Local Injury Unit and Outpatient Department. Chairperson Angela Coll insists enhancing Ennis will solve legacy problems in the MidWest.

It follows the gradual restoration of outpatient appointments of elective and day surgeries at Ennis, Nenagh, St. Johns, University Hospital Limerick and Croom Orthopedic following three weeks of scheduled care deferrals. The measure was introduced as part of an "escalation plan" to alleviate overcrowding at UHL and the UL Hospitals Group says the resumption of care is being managed within available resources and is subject to daily review. Ennis MidWest Hospital Campaign Spokesperson Hillary Tonge has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan it's unaccpetable that longstanding patient appointments could be cancelled at anytime due to pressure on the Emergency Department.

A Regional Health Forum West member says unacceptable overcrowding has become the norm at University Hospital Limerick. The HSE took the decision last Wednesday to defer scheduled care at University Hospital Limerick as well as Ennis, Nenagh, St. John's and Croom Hospitals due to spiralling overcrowding following the August Bank Holiday Weekend. Trolley numbers reached as high as 127 last week compared to 80 on the same day last year. Regional Health Forum Committee Chairperson and Shannon Sinn Féin Councillor Donna McGettigan says the facility is in crisis response mode day in day out.

The deferral of scheduled care at Ennis Hospital, UHL and other Midwest facilities this week has been described as "completely unacceptable". It's now two days since the HSE took the decision to cancel elective and day surgery as well as outpatient appointments for an indefinite period of time across UL Hospitals Group facilities. The Emergency Department in Dooradoyle remains open 24/7 while Injury Units and medical assessment units at Ennis, Nenagh and St. John's are all operating as normal. Irish Hospital Consultant Association President Gabrielle Colleran has been telling me the people of the Midwest have been abandoned "by virtue of what their postcode is".
