Irish Institute of Rural Health Ltd
 The Irish Institute of Rural Health was incorporated by Dr Jerry Cowley, Mulranny, County Mayo in December 1996 and aims to encourage good health and standards of practice in rural Ireland and to promote research.
Professor Andrew Murphy of University College Galway is a Director. It is envisaged that UCG and the Irish College of General Practitioners will continue to work closely with the Irish Institute.
It is well recognised that rural practitioners are different to their urban counterparts in that they must deliver a more comprehensive service in greater isolation from colleagues and without the same hospital back-up.
There must be adequate resources/ infrastructure to allow that to happen successfully. Too often rural practitioners are overworked with inadequate resources and long working hours. Research will more fully identify the problems that exist and help provide answers.
