New Kildare primary care facility creates 250 jobs

Around 250 jobs have been created in Co Kildare as work begins on a primary care facility in Newbridge.

The €7.8m development is a public-private venture between Clarington Primary Care, Centric Care, Kildare VEC and the HSE.

The positions will be in construction and the project is expected to take 12 months to complete.

Once opened, around 100 people will be employed at the facility.
