The centre in Limerick provides a variety of services to patients with Cancer, for example, the centre has devoted an Inpatient Ward and Haematology/Oncology Day Ward where patients attend for pre-diagnosis, during diagnosis and for treatment afterwards.

The Cancer Centre also has a Regional Specialist Breast Unit, Radiotherapy Centre and Palliative Care services.
