Tenders to be sought shortly for new hospital in Carrick

Positive report on St. Patrick's Hospital

St. Patrick's Hospital in Carrick-on-Shannon will eventually be replaced by the new hospital for which design work has now been completed.

Cllr Finola Armstrong-McGuire asked the HSE's regional health forum for an update on the progress of plans for the new hospital in Carrick-on-Shannon, to eventually replace St Patrick's Hospital.

In reply from Joe Hoare, Assistant National Director, HSE Capital & Estates, the Carrick-on-Shannon Fine Gael councillor was told, “The detailed design work for the new facility has now been completed by the design team and they have submitted a pre tender report.

“A short list of building contractors has also been produced for the project following publication of an OJEU notice by HSE earlier this year.

“It is anticipated that approval to tender the works will be in place shortly and that tenders will then be sought for the works from the shortlisted firms.

“Following subsequent receipt and evaluation of tenders HSE Board Approval will subsequently be sought for the award of a public works contract to deliver the new facility.”
