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

Charleville Nursing Home is a purpose-built facility with 60 single ensuite rooms, offering care for older people and younger adults with various needs including dementia and palliative care. Residents praised the kindness of staff and the quality of activities and meals. However, inspectors found serious concerns about infection control, particularly a delayed response to an influenza outbreak, and noted that care plans were not always updated when residents' conditions changed. The home has good communal spaces and supports residents' rights and choices.

Dementia care
Palliative care

What inspectors liked

All bedrooms are single occupancy with ensuite facilities, clean and well maintained.
Staff are kind and caring, with residents expressing high satisfaction with care and activities.
Residents have access to a variety of activities and can choose whether to participate.
Meals are of good quality with choice and residents praised the food.
There is a clear management structure and appropriate staffing levels to meet residents' needs.

What needed to improve

Delayed detection and management of an influenza outbreak, leading to increased risk of transmission.
Infection prevention and control practices were not followed, including lack of isolation and testing for symptomatic residents.
Care plans were not consistently updated to reflect changes in residents' health conditions.
Issues with regulation of room temperatures, especially during summer months.
Communication systems failed to escalate staff concerns about respiratory symptoms to management in a timely manner.

What residents said

“Staff were very kind and caring”
“Activity staff were described as excellent and supported a good quality of life”
“It was like a hotel (referring to meals)”
“I have never been happier since I came to live here”

Staffing: The home had appropriate numbers and skill mix of staff for the 56 residents present, including 24-hour nursing with a minimum of two nurses on duty daily. Staff received training in fire safety, manual handling, safeguarding, dementia care, and infection control, though training on outbreak detection and management was insufficient.
Activities: Two activity coordinators provide a varied programme including exercise and reminiscence sessions. Residents can choose whether to participate and have access to outings and advocacy services. Residents meetings are held quarterly to discuss the running of the centre.
Food: Residents are offered a choice of meals with good quality and variety. Assistance is provided respectfully and unhurriedly. Menus are displayed in dining rooms and residents can eat in their rooms or dining areas.
Dementia: The home provides dementia care and staff received training in dementia care and managing responsive behaviours. Residents with responsive behaviours were treated respectfully and restrictive practices were low.
