Admissions Office

Cork University Hospital

Phone +353 (0)21 4922491 / +353 (0)21 4922497


You will receive notification of your admission to hospital by letter. It is important to read this letter carefully and if possible, complete the details requested. General admissions go through the admissions office on the ground floor in order to provide accurate patient information including personal details, health insurance and date of birth. Once your admission is complete, our reception staff will be pleased to offer any assistance you may require to reach your bed.

Cork University hospital is the main referral centre for the South West of Ireland. Should an emergency arise, there may be a need to cancel your admission at short notice, you will be given a new appointment at the earliest possible available date. Patients should ring the designated ward on the morning of their admission to check bed availability.

Directions to the admissions office and all wards are well sign posted from both the main entrance and the Out-patients entrance, if you have any problems in locating the admissions office please ask at the information desks at these entrances.
