Meet Deirdre McGuone-Kiely

Founder and CEO of CardiACT

Working as an Emergency Cardiology Advanced Nurse Practitioner with 18 years Emergency Department experience and a PhD scholar with Trinity College Dublin I am passionate about cardiovascular health and research . Over my years in clinical practice, I’ve lost count of the number of patients I’ve met who had a heart attack and were shocked this happened to them as they believed they were healthy and had no symptoms leading up to their event.


This is why I have founded CardiACT, to shift the dial towards keeping hearts healthy before patients experience a heart attack or stroke. Prevention is our priority❤️.


Our ethos at CardiACT is to Empower patients to ACT now to reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease and deaths in Ireland.
