    Firstly apologies if this is in the wrong place..


    Can anybody tell me what the maximum age for kids using Crumlin is?

    Specifically for an in-patient operation.

    We've been told 16 but I'm sure that I've heard of kids older than that being treated there. Anybody know of somebody older than that or what the actual age is??

    Cheers...

    There are children attending there who've been attending since infancy/early childhood.
    In some cases,they continue to attend Crumlin, sometimes,until their lates teens even.

    It depends on the condition/illness.

    Usual age is 16,however,or used to be.

    I attended until I was 17 under a consultant, from there I was transfered to the Matter hospital. My guess is that the general age is 16/17 and no older
