Summary

The Irish Examiner’s Louise Burne has memories of spending time in Temple Street hospital in Dublin as a child to treat a condition with which she was born. The staff were great, the environment and facilities far less so. Recently, she wrote about the children of tomorrow who will have a brand new hospital to cater for their needs. But, at the rate of progress in building the national children’s hospital, we might well ask, will tomorrow come? Louise and Irish Examiner Health Correspondent Niamh Griffin fill us in on the story so far and whether an end is in sight. NOTE: In response to the story relayed by Niamh on this podcast, a spokesperson for CHI said, “all staff concerns are being addressed as they come up in real time in regular sessions across hospital sites.” Hosted on Acast.
