Dedicated Ulster Hospital nurse bids farewell after more than 40 years of compassionate care
There was much to celebrate recently at Belfast’s Stormont Hotel as highly respected Ulster Hospital Deputy Sister, Claire Robinson, marked her retirement from Nursing, after 42 years.
She was joined at her retirement party by family, friends, and colleagues, who all paid tribute to her years of dedication.
Claire, who began her career in the Royal Victoria Hospital, moved to Critical Care in the Ulster Hospital where she spent several years in the Intensive Care Unit.
Theatre Manager and colleague Donna Healey shared how much Claire will be missed.


“We, in Theatres, will miss Claire for her incredible efficiency in running the emergency lists, ensuring a high quality of care for the patients and supporting and teaching new staff on her shifts,” she said.
“We want to wish her a happy and healthy retirement.
"Claire’s recent retirement party was just a small testament to just how well loved she is.”
