Hanafy Youssef, who died at the age of 80 on 21 January 2019, was a leading figure in Irish psychiatry. With his colleague John Owens, he set up the first community-based psychiatric service in Ireland. He was able to show that this pattern of service led to better outcomes for patients and their families. As a result, a number of other community-based services in Ireland and the UK were established.
