Authors: Mid-Western Health Board (MWHB) Description: The Palliative Care Needs Assessment Exercise arose from a recommendation of the Report by the National Advisory Committee on Palliative Care. This long awaited Report is most welcome and indeed will play a huge part in shaping the future delivery of Palliative Care Services in Ireland for the future years ahead. The undertaking of this exercise was a collaborative approach between Voluntary and Statutory Agencies. It is this partnership to date that has pioneered the development and operating of the Specialist Palliative Care Services in the Mid West.

Authors: Mid-Western Health Board (MWHB) Description: The National Health Strategy - "Shaping a Healthier Future" - proposes that services be directed towards achieving health gain and social gain. The key principles under pinning the Strategy are equity, quality and accountability. Quality of services is to be assessed in a number of ways, including patient/client satisfaction with services provided. This report represents the first comprehensive study of consumer satisfaction undertaken in the Board 's acute hospitals and covers a wide range of issues relating to both in-patient and out-patient hospital services. Results are generally extremely satisfactory and where shortfalls are identified, action will be taken to secure improvements. Overall, the good results obtained are a tribute to the staff in the hospitals concerned:- Ennis General Hospital, Nenagh General Hospital, Regional Orthopaedic Hospital, Regional Maternity Hospital and Regional Hospital Limerick.

Authors: Cowley, Hilary; Houghton, Frank; Mid Western Health Board (MWHB). Director of Public Health. Description: The target population for this study was selected by a multistage stratified random sampling method. The Mid-west region was initially divided into four areas, Co. Clare, North Co. Tipperary, Co. Limerick and Limerick City and environs. The 69 schools were then stratified into male and female single sex schools, mixed secondary schools and vocational schools. A total of 23 schools was then proportionally and randomly selected within these strata. A total of 2297 post-primary school students from second year and pre-Leaving Cert. Years completed the questionnaire. These students were selected for three reasons: to allow direct comparison with the previous study by the Mid Western Health Board in 199B, because they were not in an examination year and thus were more accessible, and to allow some comparison with the 1999 ESPAD findings .
