New common room opens for junior doctors and medical students

July 8, 2020

After months of hard work, the Junior Doctors and Medical Students Common Room, finally opened Tuesday 7 July.

The new area, formerly the physiotherapy gym at City Hospital, boasts comfy sofas, a kitchenette, and two rest rooms, which each house a reclining chair and black out blinds.

There are lockers and two computers where colleagues are able to continue with any work they need to.

Raffaela Goodby, Director of People and Organisation Development, attended the opening, alongside doctors Alison Eastaugh and Eoin Dore, who came up with the idea for the common room.
