Referral Process

St John of God Hospital accepts referrals from across the country, ensuring admissions are in line with the Mental Health Act 2001 and professional guidelines. Referrals for emergency or elective admissions must be made by a GP, another hospital's medical staff, or a consultant. While we do not have a walk-in assessment unit, we work with major insurers including VHI, Laya, Aviva/Irish Life Health, and more.
