Hiring a private driver

I HOPE TO COME TO IRELAND  FOR ABOUT 10 DAYS DURING YOUR EASTER SCHOOL BREAK. I AM ON DIALYSIS  FOR 4HRS MON., WED., AND FRI. I WAS HOPING TO HIRE A PERSON TO DRIVE ME AROUND DONEGAL OR SLIGO OR LONDODERRY AND THE WILD ATLANTIC WAY. I AM FROM WISCONSIN AND A RETIRED PROSECUTOR. I THOUGHT A RETIRED PERSON OR STUDENT MIGHT FIT THE BILL. ALL IS OFF  IF I CAN'T FIND A DIALYSIS CENTER TO ACCEPT ME   THANK YOU GARY SCHUSTER

Hello Gary,

It's great that you are considering a trip to Ireland next Spring! 

I have found a few chauffeur services in the North West of the island, such as Donegal Chauffeur Travel, Donegal Executive Travel and Sligo Chauffeur that might suit your needs.

Have you already found a dialysis center where you'd be able to go? I have found the Sligo University Hospital Dialysis Unit as well as the Renal Unit in Derry-Londonderry. 

Furthermore, you might be interested in these suggestions to explore the North West, Co. Sligo, Donegal and Co. Derry-Londonderry.

Hope this helps! Let us know how your plans go.

Cheers,
Antoine

In relation to dialysis centres, there is 1 purpose-built Renal Unit within the Western Trust, at Altnagelvin Hospital. This is the local hospital in Derry-Londonderry. More details, including contact information, can be found on the Western Health and Social Care Trust website at:
