How we calculate this score

Every regulation HIQA judged on an inspection earns points: Compliant 100, Substantially compliant 65, Not compliant 25.
Where the compliance plan rates the risk of a failing regulation, orange (moderate risk) takes off 15 more points and red (high risk) takes off 40. Yellow (low risk) takes off nothing.
An inspection's score is the average over the regulations it looked at.
A home's score combines its last 3 inspections: the newest counts for 50%, the one before for 30% and the one before that for 20%. With fewer inspections the weights are scaled up to 100%.
The trend compares the newest inspection's score with the average of the earlier ones: 5 points or more higher is improving, 5 or more lower is declining, anything else is stable.
Homes are ranked by score within their county and among scored homes within 25 km. Homes with the same score share a rank.

Method v1. It uses only HIQA's published judgments, not our opinion, and is recalculated whenever a new report is published.

What the latest inspection found

Ballinasloe Care Centre is a purpose-built nursing home currently accommodating 17 residents on the first floor due to ongoing fire safety and refurbishment works on the ground floor. Residents receive care that meets their assessed needs and are treated kindly by staff. The first floor has been recently refurbished to a high standard, and residents expressed satisfaction with the improvements. However, fire safety issues remain unresolved, including compromised fire doors and inadequate fire containment, leading to an urgent action from inspectors. The kitchen is temporarily closed, with meals delivered from a local hotel. Complaints management and safeguarding procedures need improvement.
