At the office in Rathfarnham, Dublin, I start working through phone calls that came in overnight, For example, a patient may have a blocked urinary catheter or a concern about an intravenous device, requiring an urgent visit. I prioritise my house calls accordingly, reviewing the patient list. I usually do six to seven visits a day, gathering medical supplies and equipment and loading them into the car before heading off. I then phone my patients to advise them of an approximate visit time.
