Clontarf Hospital is an incorporated charitable voluntary hospital providing healthcare services since 1876. Originally providing paediatric orthopaedic care, the hospital switched to adult orthopaedic rehabilitation in 1972. It now has a total capacity of 160 beds providing post-acute rehabilitation services to patients referred from older persons services in the Mater and Beaumont Hospital, orthopaedic patients from orthopaedic units in the Dublin acute hospitals, as well as more specialised rehabilitation patients from Beaumont Hospital. Beds are also allocated to the Integrated Care Programme for Older People (ICPOP) in Dublin North city and county. The hospital is proud of its long tradition of providing healthcare services, and plans to continue developing services to meet the increasing rehabilitation healthcare needs of the populations it serves.
