As of 2024[update] an as-yet unnamed children's hospital is under construction on the campus of St. James's Hospital in Dublin, Ireland, as a regional secondary and national tertiary centre. Referred to in planning documents simply as the new children's hospital, it is due to combine the services currently provided at Dublin's three tertiary children's hospitals: Children's Health Ireland at Crumlin (formerly Our Lady's Children's Hospital); Children's Health Ireland at Temple Street (formerly Temple Street Children's University Hospital); and Children's Health Ireland at Tallaght (formerly the National Children's Hospital at Tallaght University Hospital).
The hospital is planned to be the lead centre in the Children's Health Ireland network, which is proposed to encompass all acute paediatric services in Ireland. In addition to the main hospital at St James's, satellite centres are expected to operate attached to Tallaght Hospital and Connolly Hospital providing local urgent care and outpatient services.
