Congratulations to Marguerite for her mental health advocacy and securing the Green Ribbon for her work promoting positive mental health.
Marguerite who is a Green Ribbon Ambassador shared her story with us on Facebook.
“11 years ago, I joined Waterford Health Park and I was put under the care of this lady Dr. Miriam Nugent. She has seen me through the bad times and the good. We had some very good laughs. My mental health has had its moments and she is one of the main reason I’m still here and she keeps me fighting. I will never be able to repay the kindness she has shown me and she has always treated me with respect and even the moments where I felt like giving up she was the motivation in keeping me going. She is a remarkable lady and her continuous support is very important to me. When I thought that I was not capable of having a normal life, she says otherwise and has given me hope in achieving the goals i wish to accomplish! Miriam your an amazing person and I’m extremely grateful your in my life xx #greenribbonirl #seechange #timetotalk #imfabulous #waterfordhealthpark “ – Marguerite Keane

Pictured are staff from Waterford Health Park, the award-winning primary healthcare campus on Slievekeale Road in Waterford, who have just started a ‘Move Smart’ challenge that will run for eight weeks during which they hope to walk a combined 12m steps and get more active every day. As part of the challenge, the team are using a pedometer app on their smartphones to measure their step count each day. Patients and members of the public are invited to join the 10,000 steps-a-day challenge and should visit Waterford Health Park if they’d like to get involved. Countless studies have shown the proven link between a more active lifestyle and better health. The impact of the ‘Move Smart’ challenge on participants will also be measured as part of a scientific study to demonstrate the positive benefits of exercise.
