As part of that celebration, the hospital will hold a special mass on Thursday, 20 April at 3pm in Gullanes Hotel, Ballinasloe.
 
"We are delighted to be celebrating this momentous milestone," said James Keane, Hospital Manager.  
 
”Portiuncula University Hospital has been an integral part of the local community and has served multiple generations of families right across the county and surrounding areas.
