Working life: Orla O’Brien, chief operations officer, Children’s Hospital Group

Meetings dominate the daily agenda as we edge closer to finally having a world-class new children’s hospital. The project was granted planning permission in April.
My role involves working with the development board on the design of the new hospital and working with my colleagues planning and overseeing the integration of the three children’s hospitals — Crumlin, Temple St and Tallaght — in advance of the move to the new children’s hospital on a shared campus with St James’s.
