Our Lady's Hospital (Irish: Ospidéal Mhuire) is a general hospital in Navan, County Meath, Ireland. It is managed by Ireland East Hospital Group.[1]
History[]
The hospital has its origins in the Navan Union Workhouse and Infirmary which was designed by George Wilkinson and opened in March 1842.[2] The facility was reconstructed as Our Lady's Hospital in the 1920s.[3] Following a march and protests in May 2014,[4] the hospital still has a 24-hour accident & emergency service.[5]
