Hospital Project April 2014
SOFT Ireland have made this year the year to re-introduce ourselves to the Maternity units across Ireland. We plan to put in place a team to work with John and Helen Shine. John and Helen have put a lot of work into creating contacts within these departments and trying to keep information updated and keep our name to hand in time of need. The team will work as a local contact with hospital in your area, starting first with presenting laminated colour posters with SOFT contact details clearly visible to be positioned in staff/family rooms. If you think you could spare a few moments to visit your local hospital please contact us with your name and location.
This is still ongoing with a dedicated Information officer and Team
