Dr Maeve Hurley, MB, MRCGP, founder of Ag Eisteacht
Dr Maeve Hurley, a former GP, founded Ag Eisteacht, an Irish registered charity, in 2001. Maeve’s first-hand experience in general practice of the value of recognising relationships as a core component of improving outcomes led her to focus on a relationship-centred approach to practice. Her vision is to enhance practitioners’ capacity to be present and attuned and build responsive relationships with their clients , while being mindful of their own health, wellbeing and boundaries. She has presented talks and workshops at IFCA International Conference, the Enable Ireland Conference , Irish Attachment in Action and to the Royal College of Physicians Ireland. She also works on an annual basis with the UCC GP Registrar Scheme across their training. Ag Eisteacht is the only organisation in Ireland offering relationship centred training and the charity has delivered training to almost 3,000 frontline practitioners in health , education , justice , early years ,across Ireland to date. Last year, Ag Eisteacht’s ABLE (Adopt a relational approach, Build, Listen and Empower) training was commended was in the Irish Healthcare Awards 2018. http://www.ageisteacht.com/
