Located on the grounds of the Tallaght Hospital campus, the new Satellite Centre will act primarily as an out-patient facility. Mercury Engineering recently completed the works.
The Satellite Centre is part of the NCH development, which encompasses the main new children's hospital at the St. James's Hospital campus in Dublin 8 and the other of two satellite centres located at James Connolly Memorial Hospital in Blanchardstown, Dublin 15. Jointly the three new buildings will make up the National Paediatrics Hospital Dublin NPHD. The function of the Satellite centre is to act as a filter for less critical injuries and illnesses to the main children's hospital in the St. James’s campus.

Mercury completed works at the Blanchardstown site in 2019 and works are ongoing on site at St. James's Hospital.
Mercury began works at Tallaght Hospital in April 2019. The project encountered a number of challenges, not least of which were the various Covid-19 shutdowns and restrictions that began in March 2020. The project was carried out under Operations Director Rory O'Brien and Business Unit Lead Seamus Reilly. Mercury's Project Manager was James Murphy with Paul Hayes as Construction Manager.
