Tallaght & Connolly Satellite Hospitals
As part of the New Childrens Hospital project two new paediatric outpatients and urgent care centres are to be constructed:
- Connolly Hospital, Blanchardstown
- The Adelaide & Meath Hospital (Tallaght Hospital)
The paediatric outpatients & urgent care centres will provide urgent care paediatric services including short stay observation beds and outpatients clinics.
Typically the centres will care for children and young people who have a common minor illness or injury which cannot be managed by a GP.
The works comprise two new Children’s Satellite Hospitals at the existing Tallaght and Connolly Hospitals and a new modular Decant and crèche building at Tallaght Hospital. Works at Tallaght Hospital includes the refurbishment at ground floor of Tallaght Hospital (1,401M2) and associated demolitions.
