A vetted companion to collect your relative from the ward at UHL and bring them home safely across Limerick, Clare, Tipperary, and the wider Mid-West. From €100.
Book a CompanionUniversity Hospital Limerick is the major acute hospital for the Mid-West region. It serves Limerick city and county, much of Clare and Tipperary, and parts of North Kerry. UHL is well-known for running one of the busiest and most pressured emergency departments in the country — which means a constant flow of patients being discharged at all hours, often with little notice.
UHL's catchment is rural and spread out. Many patients are discharged to addresses an hour or more away — Ennis, Nenagh, Newcastle West, Listowel, Adare, Killaloe. A relative making the round trip loses most of a day. Public transport from UHL to most of those places is impractical for someone post-procedure. Here2Help collapses all of that into a single fixed booking.
Companion identifies at the relevant ward at Dooradoyle, takes the handover from nursing staff, and accompanies your relative out personally.
For unplanned discharges from UHL's busy ED, often at unsocial hours and short notice, we hold short-notice availability for the region.
Drop-offs across Limerick city and county, Clare (Ennis, Killaloe, Ennistymon), Tipperary (Nenagh, Thurles, Cashel), North Kerry (Listowel, Tarbert).
UHL handles many extended-stay older patients. Settling in matters; we don't rush the home arrival.
Need more time? Extra hours at €30/hour. Drop-offs to Clare, Tipperary, North Kerry carry a transparent distance surcharge — quoted upfront.
