According to a report on the Drogheda Life website "the General Manager of the hospital, Fiona Brady, wrote to all staff members today (November 6) informing them of her intention, “as part of the Senior Management Strategic Plan for Quarter 1, 2019”, to change the name of Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital" to one of the aforementioned names.
