Cork-based epilepsy outreach service honoured

A Cork-based epilepsy outreach service has taken one of the top honours at the annual HSE Health Excellence Awards.

The Community Epilepsy Outreach Service collected the Popular Choice Award, which was decided by a special online voting poll, at a ceremony held in Dublin last night.

The service was established just two years ago with the aim of providing a high-quality specialist epilepsy care service to people with an intellectual disability and living in residential care.
