Government To Progress Development Of New Midwest Hospital In Conjunction With Other Measures
Update: 2025-12-17
Description
The Health Minister has told Clare's Oireachtas members that the development of a new hospital with an emergency department in the Midwest will be progressed "in conjunction" with other approved measures. Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has met with TDs and senators from this region after confirming that all three options recommended by HIQA's review of emergency care capacity in the Midwest have been accepted. It means the Government will begin work on expanding capacity at University Hospital Limerick, extending the UHL campus to a second nearby site, and developing a new Model 3 hospital with an emergency department in the region, in the new year. Bodyke Fine Gael TD Joe Cooney says while the long-awaited new facility won't be delivered in the short-term, it won't be left on the long finger.
