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.
Oakdale Nursing Home is a well-run, purpose-built centre with 58 residents, offering 24-hour nursing care and a range of services including dementia and palliative care. Residents generally feel content and appreciate the kindness of staff and cleanliness of the home. Meals are a social occasion with choices available, though some residents have concerns about food temperature and quality. Activities are varied and include visits from local students. However, some care plans and medication management need improvement, and there are issues with storage and ventilation in some areas of the building.
