I would like to acknowledge the effort and commitment of all staff in the Regional Centre of Nursing and Midwifery Education throughout 2013 and also clinical nursing staff of all grades who have made a significant contribution in the successful provision of programmes. We also recognise the valuable contribution of the Board of Management, Office of Nursing Services Director, Area/Director Regional Nursing, Midwifery, Planning and Development, Nursing/Midwifery Board of Ireland and Hospital Management at Connolly Hospital. I would in particular like to thank Eithne Cusack, Director of Nursing, Midwifery, Planning and Development and her staff for her on going support and allocation of funding for continuous professional development. The 2013 Annual Report seeks to illustrate the activities of the Centre. Essentially the report concentrates on providing an overview of developments to date. Moreover a series of tables are provided to indicate the activities of the Nurse Tutors namely, the organisation of Education and Training, the Annual Budget, Professional Development and the attendance figures of nurses/midwives and allied health professionals within the HSE Dublin North East region in 2013 I hope the report enables you to gain an insight in to the Centre s contribution regarding the education and training of health care staff in the HSE Dublin North Region.
