Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Children's Hospital: Discussion
Ms Eilísh Hardiman:
Trilocation is still an objective and the medical boards have discussed it with the master of the Coombe hospital. St. James's Hospital is important in that regard because we want to have those synergies in the delivery of maternity and paediatric services. The three chairmen are meeting to see how they can progress this from the boards' perspective. There are some planning elements that could happen which are not resource intensive but which need to be done in the context of the clinical model.
