€60m Private Hospital Gets Go-Ahead
A new €60m private hospital proposed for Ennis has been given the go-ahead.
On Thursday Ennis Town Council granted permission for the 97-bed hospital within the 19th-century protected structure that housed the former Our Lady’s Psychiatric Hospital on the northern outskirts of Ennis, Co Clare.
The hospitals backers, Duesbury, say it will create up to 700 jobs in the area – 100 in construction and 600 when operational.
The planned hospital will comprise a “full care hospital providing all medical services and ancillary accommodation to include 97 full in-patient beds”, alongside “12 consultant suites with 30 first-strategy recovery cubicles and office accommodation”.
