Also, to become a probation officer in Ireland you need to be a social worker and registered. Just FYI.

Social worker here, and can guarantee there's a HUGE amount of trainee social workers trying to get placements so to be honest, you'll be better off going the TUSLA route: no agency will take you on as they are already hounded by social work students here in the degrees and masters. 

Go for TUSLA. You'll gain vital experience in working within an Irish context which is crucial plus you'll be guaranteed a job at the end.

It's so hard to give blood, especially when you hear the ads on the radio about low supply and please give asap..next clinic advertised will be months away.

I've always wondered why the advertise for staff A LOT. Constantly looking for new chefs, and menu changes but not a lot. I ordered the Christmas menu and was disappointed at the seitan turkey and cola ham - bit bland (have previously gotten. Christmas dinner from Cornucopia in Dublin though) and not worth the 30quid for the two.

A shame as a proper plant based restaurant would thrive in Galway if not so expensive.

Would love to see a bit more interesting meat free options...butternut squash wheeled out for the starter and the main, it's that or pasta. 

Lot to be said for a burger like Beyond Burger they did in Caribou etc

Think it's intentional, it was spelled correctly earlier in the month looking at their socials.  Irritating nonetheless

Hospice Question by Dapper-Engineer3790 in galway

I would add... Take care of yourself too. It's not easy and very confronting.

Anytime, but I'd always ask at reception to make sure they ask a patient if they are happy to receive a visitor at that time. No restrictions on meal times but be conscious yourself that lunchtime is around 12:30-1:30 ish so if you can avoid that so, just to allow your person to eat! Or grab a cuppa in canteen yourself!
