Hospitals & Health Clinics in Ireland
All persons resident in Ireland are entitled to receive health care through the public health care system, which is managed by the Health Service Executive (HSE) and funded by general taxation. Many hospitals in Ireland, such as Connolly Hospital at Blanchardstown, are operated directly by the HSE. There are also hospitals run under a voluntary basis by organisations who receive public funding but operate with some degree of autonomy. Included in this latter group are teaching hospitals (such as University Hospital Dublin) operated in conjunction with a university and hospitals with a long standing religious ethos e.g. Adelaide and Meath Hospital in Ireland. The Rotunda Hospital in Ireland is the world's oldest maternity hospital, founded in 1745. It is also one of its largest, dealing with over eight thousand births in 2007. The Health Service Executive (HSE) manages the delivery of the entire health service as a single national entity.
There are four HSE administrative areas (HSE Dublin Mid-Leinster, HSE Dublin North-East, HSE South and HSE West), which are in turn divided into 32 Local Health Offices (LHOs).
