A Bright Future for CHI

As part of our commitment to advancing paediatric care, we are excited to announce the expansion of our services through the new children's hospital project. This state of the art facility, located on the St. James's Hospital campus, will be complemented by two new outpatient and urgent care centres. The new hospital will serve as a national hub for children and young people requiring highly specialised care and treatment.

In addition to the main hospital, our new model of care includes two satellite centres at Tallaght Hospital and Connolly Hospital in Blanchardstown, ensuring accessible and comprehensive paediatric care across Ireland. With 39 paediatric specialties and cutting edge equipment, the new hospital is set to be a beacon of excellence in child healthcare.
