This is the most the home can charge a week for residents on the Fair Deal scheme. Under Fair Deal you pay up to 80% of your income and 7.5% of the value of your assets a year, and the State pays the rest. Homes may charge extra for things like activities, hairdressing or newspapers, so ask about these when you call.

Larissa Lodge Nursing Home provides 24-hour nursing care in a single-storey building with 48 single and 8 twin rooms, all en-suite. Residents generally enjoy a good quality of life with positive interactions with staff and access to various activities. However, there are concerns about fire safety risks, inadequate storage in some rooms, and some residents not receiving all contracted services such as occupational therapy. The provider has management systems in place but needs to improve fire safety and ensure residents' rights to activities and services are fully met.
