    I need a barber that would go to st james hospital and cut a mans/patients hair.
    id rather not go into to much detail but I'm sure you can guess he can't go and get it done himself.
    hes a cancer patient so its not possible.
    There was a guy that did it but he's retired im told.
    Even a hairdresser that would go would be fine.i have called 3 places in the area but with no joy.

    The hospices have volunteers that help them out. They may be able to give your details to someone.

    Nursing homes also have people who deal with their residents, many of whom would be in a similar situation.

    There is a directory of nursing homes here: http://www.nhi.ie/directory.php

    When my grandfather was there in hospital, they had someone come often to cut patients hair. Contact the PAL patient advisor liaison and they should be able to help you with whoever they recommend.
