A year waiting: Diabetics no closer to help
The Cork parents’ support group of the Diabetes Federation of Ireland said it had no option but to mount this second picket outside Cork University Hospital (CUH) — a year to the day since their first picket — after health managers failed to deliver improvements at the hospital’s paediatric diabetes unit.
The group said the unit still does not have the required number of specialist staff to deal with the 270 children who attend for treatment.
