Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

National Children’s Hospital: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board

Ms Eilísh Hardiman:

What I have is the total activity projections. We anticipate significant increases in that, particularly because, as Dr. Curtis already identified, we have significant challenges around access to some paediatric services. We have anticipated that the activity for our inpatient department will involve 24,000 cases annually and that there will be 26,000 day cases. We anticipate there will be over 124,000 emergency department cases. I can break those down into daily rates. It would be a good point to demonstrate.
