The Mater Hospital is like a village in many ways because we're a close-knit community. We have over 3000 people working here and we always welcome new people as well as value those who have been with us for years. When students train at the Mater Hospital, they frequently come back to work with us after graduation.

 

This is because there is a real sense of belonging, of pride and of community working here.

We are lucky to have a wonderful community within our hospital that also extends to our sister hospitals and academic partners. Outside of the hospital, we also have a thriving local community with a range of cafes, shops & and amenities close by. 

​

We also love to have fun! We celebrate and hold events throughout the year like the annual Mater Ball, Dublin's Culture Night, Strictly Come Dancing, Staff Health & Wellbeing Day, The Oskars and more.
