Kindness in our Health Service

Roisin Ingle
in conversation with Brendan Kelly

Roisin Ingle, journalist, author and podcaster, wrote a column just before Christmas last year in which she described the kindness she constantly experiences from the staff in the chemotherapy day ward in the Mater Hospital who treat her cancer.

The piece had a huge response, and got many people thinking about the therapeutic value of kindness in healthcare. Roisin will be joined by Professor Brendan Kelly, of TCD and Tallaght Hospital, psychiatrist, historian of mental health and author of many books, including, most recently, Resilience; Lessons from Sir William Wilde in Life after Covid.
