flag Ireland cancels Rotunda Hospital move, choosing to expand it in Dublin instead.

flag The Irish government has scrapped plans to relocate Rotunda Hospital to Connolly Hospital, opting instead to expand its current Dublin city centre site. flag A revised planning application will seek approval for a new critical care unit for women and infants, plus an upgraded Sexual Assault Treatment Unit, following the rejection of a previous €100 million extension due to concerns over the site’s architectural character. flag The move preserves the hospital’s central location and leverages its existing link with the Mater Hospital for patient transfers. flag Health Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill cited input from clinical leaders and emphasized the importance of maintaining the Rotunda’s role in urban women’s health. flag The decision marks a shift from relocation to modernization on-site.
