Mount Carmel Hospital in south Dublin was built and run by the Blue Nuns. It is now owned and managed by a private company.
It was and is a private hospital.
The hospital was officially opened in 1960 by the then archbishop of Dublin, John Charles McQuaid.
There is mosaic style wall tile recalling the official opening.
Visitors to the hospital can read in large letters that the hospital was officially opened by 'His Grace, Archbishop of Dublin John Charles McQuaid..."
Surely it's time to remove such offensive words from a public place.
