An exclusive documentary produced by Ben Panter for RCB. The four part series of fifteen minute episodes takes an in depth and candid look at the work of rural Clare’s General Practitioners as they discuss topics pertinent today. Doctor’s Gerry Wheeler, Billy O’Connell and John Duncan tackle issues including mental health, technology, ShannonDoc, the challenges facing rural patients and the toll the profession has taken on their personal lives. They are joined by mental health nurse, Breda Latham and coastguard Rose Keane who offer their expert insight into topics discussed in the documentary.
The series was produced by Ben Panter who was honoured to create his first and hopefully not his last, Sound and Vision Documentary. Ben said ” I found the interviews eye-opening and finished the project with a greater respect of the sacrifices that all participants have made as they endeavour to keep the people of Clare fit and well.
