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.

Method v1. It uses only HIQA's published judgments, not our opinion, and is recalculated whenever a new report is published.
St Colmcille's Nursing Home is a well-run, single-storey facility in a rural setting that provides care for up to 42 residents with various needs including dementia and palliative care. Residents and families expressed satisfaction with the care and staff, describing them as kind and attentive. The home is clean, bright, and has a calm atmosphere with activities like baking, exercises, and bingo. However, some issues remain such as marked bedroom flooring and storage of equipment in bathrooms, which affect the homelike environment and access to facilities. Care plans are in place but not always fully followed, especially regarding repositioning and nutrition monitoring.
