Our History
Bloomfield was established over 200 years ago when a group of Quakers met to consider the possibility of providing a home for those “afflicted with disorders of the mind”. Three years later, in 1810, a property was purchased in Donnybrook and Bloomfield opened its doors in 1812. In 2005, Bloomfield Health Services relocated to the new, state-of-the-art facility that is its current home in Rathfarnham.
