Roscommon University Hospital to celebrate 80th Anniversary

Roscommon University Hospital is delighted to announce that later this year we will be celebrating our 80th Anniversary.

As part of the celebrations to mark this momentous milestone of delivering healthcare to Roscommon and the surrounding counties, we are inviting former and current staff, patients and members of the wider community to share with us stories, memories and photos of the hospital from the past 80 years.

Mary Garvey, General Manager at Roscommon University Hospital said they were delighted to be celebrating the anniversary. “Roscommon 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. We are honoured to mark this milestone and to celebrate not only our hospital but all the staff both past and present who served this community so well.”

Stories and photos can be emailed to RUH80@hse.ie or can be sent by post to the General Manager’s Office, Roscommon University Hospital, Athlone Road, Roscommon F42 AX61. Please include the names of any persons included in photographs, and include your address so that we can return the photographs.

Please note that material submitted may be published in a book and/or may be publicly exhibited, therefore it is important that consent is obtained from persons featured in any written or photographic material or relatives of that person if they are no longer with us.

Thank you for taking the time to contribute to our community’s celebration of our Hospital.
