St James’s Hospital and SETU’s Higher Diploma in Operational Excellence in Healthcare has delivered measurable improvements at Ireland’s largest HIV clinic, including a 5 percent reduction in unscheduled walk-ins and shorter patient waiting times.
The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) has welcomed the publication by the HSE of the National Clinical Guidance for the Elective Care Facilities (November 2025), a comprehensive resource designed to support healthcare professionals in delivering safe, high-quality, and efficient elective surgical care.
RCSI has announced a landmark report, Supporting Surgeons in Ireland, at the 2025 Millin Meeting. The publication reviews existing supports for surgeons and trainees and sets out key recommendations on mentorship, leadership development, communication and CPD, with the aim of future-proofing the surgical workforce and sustaining excellence in patient care.
