The new children’s hospital, on a shared campus with St James’s Hospital, will bring together the three existing children’s hospitals at Temple Street, Crumlin and Tallaght into one, consolidating specialist expertise and research excellence to ensure the best outcomes for the children of Ireland. Two supporting satellite centres at Connolly and Tallaght are complete and fully operational.

Potential future uses for the existing sites at Crumlin and Temple Street, following the transfer to the new children’s hospital, are at the early stages of consideration.
