Description

Health care services in Ireland are undertaking a significant reform in line with Government policy as envisioned in Sláintecare to ensure that the service delivery model and associated governance and management structures in Community Healthcare are fit for purpose to deliver high-quality, safe and effective care that meets the needs of the population and is delivered as close to home as possible.

In order to realise the benefits of Sláintecare and the future of healthcare in Ireland, there is a need for strong leadership and ownership at local level, bringing the relationship between primary care and specialist social care, mental health & acute hospital services, as well as advancing the health and wellbeing of the population, into a much more focused and integrated approach in each local area.

Ownership and responsibility for the provision of health and social services, through the life cycle is best placed within the communities that people live. Community Healthcare Networks, serving a community population of on average 50,000, are the fundamental unit of organisation for the delivery of services. When fully rolled out there will be 96 Community Healthcare Networks across the country.

HSE Dental Service provides oral health care, emergency and routine dental services to the eligible population of children under 16 years (including preschool, primary school, post primary children) and eligible adults with special needs. Routine and emergency services are provided to children and adults with special healthcare needs, children in the care of the HSE and patients of any facility maintained by the HSE. Future developments for the service will include enhanced care for certain vulnerable groups. These services include emergency and routine dental care, oral health promotion, dental care to special needs groups, and public dental health services.

A preventative evidence based approach is the fundamental and distinctive character of the Public Dental Service

The post holder will work under the guidance of the Principal Dental Surgeon and will be responsible for the coordination of the public dental service and the supervision of all grades of Dental Surgeons, Dental Hygienists, Dental Nurses and administrative staff across North Tipperary.
