✨Ladies Lunch ✨

We had a brilliant time at the Cork Con Ladies’ Lunch fundraiser in support of Marymount Hospice! Our representative Mary Brady had a fantastic day celebrating inspiring women and the incredible community that continues to support the work of Marymount.

On Friday night, the Maryborough Hotel was alive with bubbles, fashion, fabulous food and prizes. A huge thank you to Cork Constitution FC and everyone who attended and supported such a special event. Your generosity truly makes a difference.

International Women's Day 2026 @ Marymount University Hospital & Hospice

Today, on International Women’s Day, we pause to celebrate the women who are at the heart of Marymount.

This year, we had the privilege of capturing portraits of some of the remarkable women across our teams, nursing, healthcare assistants, allied health, general service, social workers, consultants, administrators, students, and so many others. Each face tells a story of dedication, compassion, and strength.

At Marymount, women make up the majority of our workforce and are central to the care we provide to patients, residents, and families at the most profound moments of their lives. Their expertise, humanity, and commitment shape everything we do.

To every woman who is part of the Marymount family, thank you. You are seen, you are valued, and today we celebrate you.

We are also grateful to every colleague across our teams whose support makes this work possible each and every day.

We are Hiring - Medical Social Worker

This is post is within the specialist palliative care service at Marymount University Hospital & Hospice, working under the direction of the Principal Social Worker as an integrated member of the multidisciplinary team. The core clinical purpose is to assess the psychological, emotional, and social needs of patients and their families facing life-limiting illness, the dying phase, and bereavement, and to develop and implement care plans in collaboration with the wider MDT.

Alongside direct clinical practice, the role carries a significant community liaison and coordination function. This includes facilitating access to community-based services for patients, families, and the bereaved, coordinating discharge planning to ensure appropriate supports are in place outside the hospice, and maintaining effective working relationships with primary healthcare teams, the hospital social work team, and voluntary organisations. In this respect, the postholder must be equally effective as a clinician and as an inter-agency collaborator.
