A combined adult cystic fibrosis inpatient designated bed facility and respiratory unit has been identified in a vacated ward site on the CUH campus. Provisional plans and costings for the unit have been progressed. The hospital has established a working group to progress this facility and is working in partnership with the Build4Life organisation. The HSE is currently examining the proposal.
