Details of shocking snag list at new National Children's Hospital revealed as 'not one' of 3,000 rooms 'finished to standard'
Briefly

Health Minister Stephen Donnelly criticized the construction firm BAM for initially resourcing the National Children's Hospital project at less than half of the required budget, citing a significant disparity between the allocated €25 million and the €200k it undertook work for. This raises serious concerns about the quality of work and project management, especially as reports reveal that none of the 3,000 completed rooms meet acceptable standards, impacting future patient admissions.
Despite substantial investment, the National Children's Hospital project, overseen by BAM, faces a troubling snag list revealing that all finished rooms fall short of expected standards. Health Minister Donnelly’s statements emphasize the need for accountability, highlighting that the project not only missed its deadlines but also raises doubts about patient readiness potentially extending to 2026. This scrutiny of BAM's management reinforces the importance of quality in healthcare construction.
