One of the greats of Irish cycling. Jackie always managed to be very professional yet still be a bit of craic as well. Whether as FIC President, International Commissaire etc, he’s left many fond memories behind. He’ll be sorely missed. Paul Watson Orla Chennaoui UCI

Thanks to Aisling O' Rourke for the shout out for Oops! on the Anton Savage this morning on NewstalkFM Errors are simply a fact of life and something to be managed, not denied. Common in Safety Critical industries, not so common in the rest of our lives unfortunately.

It’s very easy to be wise after the event with 20:20 hindsight but ‘What if’ our health service was structured with an adequate number of well rested, fed, hydrated staff with adequate IT support to give them a fighting chance to focus on the skills they use to diagnose & treat?

Enjoyed discussing what I think we can learn from aviation and how we can transfer it to other industries, esp. healthcare. We all make mistakes, it’s how they’re managed & used to reinforce our systems in order to minimise their recurrence that counts . thesafetyculture.guru/bridging-the-g…

We never thought we’d have an easy analogy of GP appointments and Oasis tickets. If demand exceeds supply, you hang on for a long time, then get frustrated and annoyed, and then may end up paying above the odds for what you wanted. Simple solution, more concerts…..
