CPA meets Cork TDs in Dublin to drive the “Patients Deserve Better” campaign.

We had a very successful meeting in Buswells Hotel on 24th November and met some very influential Cork TDs who actively support the campaign. We were also joined online by a number of interested parties and other neurological groups anxious to highlight the shortage of Neurological Specialist Nurses and the impact this has on their members. We have a plan and have commitment from these TDs to drive forward the campaign.
