The first Irish Street Medicine Symposium was hosted by the North Dublin City GP Training Programme on 18th June at the Catherine McAuley Centre in Dublin. The symposium was inspired by the International Street Medicine Symposium health in Dublin in October 2014 http://streetmedicine.org/

 

The aim of the Irish Symposium  was to improve health care for homeless people through sharing information about services, identifying gaps and highlighting what already works. The symposium was a great success with many calling for it to be a regular rather than a once off event. The presentations are available here.
