A Clare member of the HSE’s Regional Health Forum West insists a new site for St Joseph’s Hospital in Ennis must include space for expansion down the line.
A new €25 million 100-bed care facility for the elderly is to be constructed on a greenfield site in the county town by the end of 2021.
HSE MidWest has confirmed to Clare FM that they intend to keep dementia-specific and rehabilitation beds at the current site, but a fresh site will be chosen for the new facility due in part to the unsuitability of the existing hospital site.

Independent Ennis Councillor Ann Norton has been telling Clare FM’s James Mulhall it’s very welcome news.
