Slaintecare and Reform of the Irish Health Service Sláintecare signals a new direction for the delivery of health and social care services in Ireland with the potential to create a far more sustainable, equitable, cost-effective system and one that delivers better value for patients and service users. At its core, the strategy focuses on establishing programmes of work to move to a community-led model, providing local populations with access to a comprehensive range of services at every stage of their lives. This will enable our healthcare system to provide care closer to home for patients and service users, to be more responsive to needs and deliver better outcomes, with a strong focus on prevention and population health improvement. To achieve this, new ways of working, including change culture will be required in the strive to deliver enhanced patient-centered and integrated care. HR is committed to building capacity for change and addressing the people and culture priorities that impact the organisation on an integrated basis. Human Resources (HR) provides strategic and operational support, direction, advice, and interventions to all areas of the health service, recognising that all staff throughout the system are key to the delivery of excellent people capability and ultimately patient and service user outcomes. The implementation of the Health Services People Strategy 2025-2028 supports the development of current and future health and social care leaders. Our shared purpose is to deliver safer better healthcare and staff and public value and collectively support the significant reform and change agenda in Ireland, particularly in light of the objectives of Slaintecare. Health Regions Implementation The Health Regions Implementation involves the internal reorganisation of the HSE into six operational regions with responsibility for the planning and coordinated delivery of health and social care services within their respective defined geographies. While the full implementation will be a multi-year journey, the Health Region approach was stood up in March 2024 and will continue to progress throughout 2025 and 2026. These new arrangements aim to improve the health service’s ability to deliver timely integrated care to patients and service users, care that is planned and funded in line with their needs at regional and local level. Integrated care is where services, funding, and governance are co-ordinated around the needs of the patient, encompassing both acute and community care. HSE Health Regions will ensure the geographical alignment of hospital and community healthcare services at a regional level, based on defined populations and their local needs. This is key to delivering on the Sláintecare vision of an integrated health and social care service. As well as enabling the integration of community and acute care, Health Regions aim to empower local decision-making and support population-based service planning. HSE SW HSE SW was formally established on 3rd March 2025. The Regional Health Authority of HSE SW replaced the previous South-South West Hospital Group and Cork-Kerry Community Healthcare structures. HSE SW provides health and social care services to a population of in excess of 700,000 across Cork and Kerry. Service are delivered through three Integrated Health Areas – Cork South and West, Cork North and East and Kerry. Cork University Hospital is aligned to IHA Cork South and West. The region's priorities include improving access to services maintaining quality and safety, reducing waiting times for acute and community services, and supporting public health and well-being. HSE SW is committed to building a health service of which our community can be proud. To deliver on this commitment the HSE SW lives the HSE Values of Care, Compassion, Trust and Learning through our Integr8 commitments. Digital technologies offer significant potential to transform healthcare, improving access, quality, and cost-efficiency.

Civil Engineering Apprentices
SECTION 1: OVERVIEW With a minimum of 3,000 new civil engineers needed to ensure the successful delivery of Project Ireland 2040, the National Development Plan 2026–2035 and Climate Action Plan 2025, an alternative delivery model for civil engineering needed to be developed to entice stronger uptake of the profession. As a profession listed on the critical skills occupation list, additional approaches for recruitment in this field are needed to address challenges in the public sector. To aid in this objective, the technological university sector has engaged with the local authority sector to develop a programme where new entrants to engineering disciplines can gain suitable academic qualifications while also engaging in workplace-based learning. Cork County Council in partnership with Munster Technological University (MTU), is offering an opportunity for a civil engineering apprenticeship. This structured apprenticeship program leads to a Level 6 qualification after two years, with the opportunity to progress to Level 7 with one additional year of study. There is also a potential pathway to Level 8, offering a full progression route in civil engineering. This is an exciting new initiative, creating an alternative career path to the civil engineering profession in Ireland based on an earn and learn model. The civil engineering apprenticeship programme is planned to be transformational, and, over time, bridge the shortfall in supply of engineers in Ireland, providing those skills critical to the delivery of Project Ireland 2040. Designed to develop the skills, knowledge and competencies to meet the future needs of the industry, this programme will appeal to those seeking to build a career in civil engineering. SECTION 2: THE ROLE This apprenticeship would suit candidates with a strong interest in civil engineering, construction and infrastructure. The role provides an opportunity to combine structured academic study with practical, on-the-job learning in a local authority environment. Civil engineering apprentices will be assigned to the Capital Delivery Directorate, Housing Directorate, Planning & Environment Directorate or Roads, Transportation & Area Services Directorate. SECTION 3: TASKS / RESPONSIBILITIES The post holder may be required to perform other tasks/responsibilities as deemed appropriate by the relevant mentor or Director of Service. Additionally, apprentices will attend on-campus labs/workshops in MTU one full day (8 hours) every three weeks. During the period between June and August each year, when there are no online lectures or on-campus labs/workshops, the working week is a 35-hour week , Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. All hours worked will be subject to the provisions of the Organisation of Working Time Act, 1997 and the Organisation of Working Time Act (Regulations) 2001 . SECTION 9: ANNUAL LEAVE The annual leave entitlement will be 22 working days per annum . Cork County Council's leave year runs from 1 January to 31 December . The granting of annual leave at any particular time is always subject to the requirements of the Council and all annual leave is liable to suspension during periods of exceptional work pressure.
