Mission

Mercer’s Institute for Successful Ageing at St. James’s Hospital is a state-of-the-art-facility for integrated clinical services and a hub for world-leading research in ageing.

The Institute promotes coordinated patient-centred care, coupled with far-reaching educational and training programmes. Responding to the need for innovation in the delivery of services for Ireland’s ageing population, the Institute:

  • Provides early diagnostic and rapid access care clinics, along with inpatient acute assessment, rehabilitation, and continuing care units;
  • Delivers innovative research and develops technologies with industry partners to advance healthy life-years;
  • Serves as a local resource to the surrounding community, while offering Ireland a national Centre for successful ageing.

Professor Rose Anne Kenny, Director, and the MISA team look forward to working with you.
