Taoiseach Simon Harris will officially open the new 50 bed ward block at Portiuncula Hospital in Ballinasloe.
He'll cut the ribbon on the long-awaited development on the morning of Wednesday, September 11th.
It'll represent a full circle for the Taoiseach - who approved the project when he was Health Minister in 2019.
The project is providing replacement beds rather than extra beds, but in far more modern facilities, including single-bed private rooms.
Local Fine Gael Senator Aisling Dolan says it's a welcome and necessary upgrade for the hospital.
