Primary Care Centres are an essential part of our Government’s significant investment to date in the delivery of high quality, integrated care to people in their own communities, as evidenced by the 160 operational Primary Care centres nationwide.

There are 8 Primary Care Centres operational in County Kildare – Athy/Castledermot, Celbridge, Clane/Kilmeague, Kilcock, Kildare Town, Naas, Newbridge and Rathangan.

In addition to those outlined, locations have been identified for the provision of Primary Care Centres in Maynooth and Leixlip.

Both of these projects are at the early planning stages.
