History

The hospital has its origins in the Mallow Union Workhouse and Infirmary which was designed by George Wilkinson and opened in 1841.[2] Following the creation of the Irish Free State the infirmary became a district hospital which evolved to become Mallow General Hospital.[2] The administration block was rebuilt in 1936.[2]

Services

The hospital provides 81 beds, of which 76 are in-patient acute beds, while 5 are reserved for acute day cases.[3]
