Denis O'Brien's Beacon Hospital to lodge plans for €75m expansion

The proposal involves the substantive demolition of the Beacon Hotel, which the Beacon Hospital purchased late last year

The €75m investment in the Beacon Hospital follows an investment of around €78m in the facility over the last six years.

The Denis O’Brien-owned Beacon Hospital is to lodge plans for a 70-care bed extension at its base in Sandyford in south Dublin in the coming days.

The proposed new eight-storey extension for the hospital will also include new A&E facilities, cancer care facilities, and associated in-patient treatment rooms.
