Plan to quadruple the size of Mercy Hospital to meet demand

The Mercy University Hospital (MUH) has an ambitious plan to quadruple in size to meet the healthcare needs of the Cork and Munster regions.

The enlarged campus would incorporate a general hospital, supporting a new elective facility, on its existing city centre site and on the adjacent Distillery Fields, a “brownfield” site owned by MUH and UCC, which is largely used for parking and includes a number of unused buildings.
