Who we are

The Royal Hospital Donnybrook (RHD) is the oldest hospital of its type in Ireland. It was established in inner city Dublin in 1743 and moved to its current location of Donnybrook, in 1804. Set in 13 acres of grounds, the hospital provides rehabilitation services, continuing care and respite to adults of all ages. The hospital is an independent, voluntary, charitable organisation. Services are provided on a not-for- profit basis.
