Visiting Times
We love to have visitors at Cahercalla and operate an ‘open visiting hours’ policy. We just ask please that visitors respect resident’s privacy during meal times.
Of course, for the well-being of our residents, we also ask that visitors take precautionary infection control measures. We do reserve the right to impose restrictions on visiting arrangements where a visit or time of visit could pose a risk, or should a resident ask for restrictions to be made.
Inspection Reports
Cahercalla Community Care is registered with the Health Information and Quality Authority and this registration is renewed every three years. This means we are inspected regularly to make sure that our standards of care are maintained and to ensure your peace of mind.
Inspections may be announced or cancelled and may take place during the day, in the evening, at night or at weekends. The registration and inspection process is independent and reports are published after each inspection. A copy of each report can be obtained from the Director of Nursing or found online here.
Charges and Funding
Cahercalla Community Care is a private nursing home. This means that while your Medical Card will cover your doctor’s fees and much of the cost of your medication, it will not cover the nursing home fees. We will let you know the daily rate of your room, before your admission.
Payment
We require a deposit of 1 week’s fees which is payable on admission. This is then deducted from your final invoice when you are discharged.
For short-term stays, an invoice will be given to you upon admission, covering the number of days’ stay. This invoice is payable on discharge.
For long-term stays (more than ONE month), an invoice will be sent to you/your relative at the beginning of each month, for the previous month’s fee. This invoice is payable on receipt.
Direct Debit
For your convenience, fees can be paid by direct debit. Please contact our Accounts who will set this up for you.
Insurance Cover
Limited Medical Insurance Cover is available – depending on the reason for your admission and the level of individual cover. We will advise you of this before you are admitted.
