The Death Certs Office in the hospital will contact the next of kin of the deceased and will provide a Death Notification Form which can be collected at main reception or can be sent by registered post. You will need to bring this form to any Civil Registration Office to register the death and they will provide you with a Death Cert.

It is important that we have all your correct details – we will only send correspondance or texts to you at the address or phone number we have for you on file – if you change your address or mobile number please let the Clinic Secretary know.   It is also a good idea to check with the Clinic Secretary when you are at your next OPD appointment that we have your correct details. Make sure your let your GP know if you have changed your address as well.
