Annual UHL Remembrance Service
University Hospital Limerick (UHL) hosts its annual multidenominational remembrance service on Sunday, October 5th at 3pm in St Nessan's Church, Church Road, Raheen, Limerick.
The service honours the memory of patients who have died while under the care of UHL staff. The hospital’s End-of-Life Care Coordinator, Rebecca Lloyd, describes the service as a space for bereaved families and friends, and hospital staff, to join in shared remembrance.
“This annual gathering is profoundly significant for the bereaved and for hospital staff,” said Ms Lloyd. “We invite anyone who has lost a loved one in UHL over the past year to join us in this moment of reflection and community.”
All are welcome to join the service. For those unable to attend in person, the service will be live-streamed on the Mungret-Crecora-Raheen parish website at www.mcrparish.com. A commemoration pin will be presented to all who attend.
Bereaved individuals can access further support through the HSE Bereavement Support Line, which is run in partnership with the Irish Hospice Foundation. This freephone service is available at 1800 807077, Monday to Friday, 10am–1pm.
