A vetted companion to collect your relative from the Mercy in Cork city centre, walk them out through the busy hospital corridors, and bring them home anywhere across Cork and Munster. From €100.
Book a CompanionMercy University Hospital sits in the centre of Cork city, on Grenville Place. It runs one of the city's busiest emergency departments, large general medical and surgical services, and specialist areas including pain management, urology, ophthalmology, and dermatology. It's a city-centre hospital serving an older, often single-occupancy demographic from the surrounding Cork neighbourhoods.
City-centre discharge has its own challenges. The taxi rank isn't always close to the ward, parking is famously tight for family collection, and many patients leaving the Mercy are returning to small flats and houses where settling in matters as much as the drive. A Here2Help companion arrives at the ward, takes over from the nursing team, and handles every step from there.
Companion identifies at the nurses' station of the relevant ward and walks your relative out personally — not standing at the front entrance.
Drop-offs across Cork city, north and south county, Bandon, Cobh, Macroom, Fermoy and further. Distance surcharges quoted upfront.
The Mercy's central location means we know where to pull in and out without making your relative walk too far. Small thing; big difference for a tired patient.
For unplanned discharges from the Mercy's busy ED, we hold short-notice availability.
Need more time? Extra hours at €30/hour. Drop-offs to county Cork carry a transparent distance surcharge — quoted upfront.
