Cobh nursing home residents left waiting six hours at sitting room table for planned activity

Residents at Cobh Community Hospital were left sitting at a table for six hours waiting for an activity to begin.
A scathing inspection report from the Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) found that the nursing home, which is run by a voluntary board of management and a large cohort of community volunteers "failed to ensure that an effective and safe service was provided for residents".
