A newly renovated room dedicated to the memory of Marie Keating at Cavan General Hospital has been opened.
The Marie Keating Foundation together with the specialist nursing team on the ICU unit of Cavan General Hospital, launched the newly renovated Marie Keating ICU Family Room in recent weeks.
The Keating family said this would not have happened without the amazing support of sponsors Harvey Norman and the Elliot Group along with the beautiful design by Yvonne Fenton. This room provides much needed comfort and privacy where someone hearing difficult news, awaiting news of a loved one or requiring a quiet private space to rest overnight can have that valuable time they need.
Cavan has a huge place in the hearts of the Keating Family, especially their Mam Marie having lived there for a time. Speaking at the launch Linda Keating said the Marie Keating ICU Family Room is very special to the family as their mam and dad loved Cavan, living in the county for a time and still having many friends there. She said having a room in Cavan General Hospital in Mam’s name, which will support so many people and their families, at a very difficult time in their lives, means so much to us.
Director of Nursing at the Marie Keating Foundation, Helen Forristal said this room will benefit so many people in region.
