DARA
DaraGroup takes its name from the dara knot. The word dara is a Celtic word which translates to "oak tree" and has significant meaning and symbolism. The image of the knot itself is reminiscent of the root system of an oak tree. These hardy and deep roots enable the oak tree to withstand harsh conditions over a vast period of time, some in excess of 300 years in fact. Symbolically, the dara knot is an ancient symbol which represents power, endurance, wisdom and destiny; attributes which DaraGroup will endeavor to instill within individual healthcare leaders as well as the organizations they lead.
