Nursing Homes Week 2014 being celebrated across the country

"Nursing Homes Week 2014 is about celebrating and recognising the positivity of nursing home care in Ireland and bringing attention to novel events that enrich the day-to-day lives of residents that the public may not be aware of,” Tadhg Daly, Nursing Homes Ireland CEO stated. “Nursing homes enhance the quality of life of persons living within them and there is wonderful care, friendship, camaraderie and happiness within such settings. Residents will lead the celebrations that will bring their family, relatives, friends, and staff who provide them with care, together.”
As well as celebrating and promoting the positivity of nursing home life, Nursing Homes Week 2014 will also highlight the many rewarding and fulfilling employment opportunities that exist within NHI member homes. An NHI survey has revealed extensive opportunities exist for nurses who can bring high skill levels and develop professionally at a swift rate within the geriatric care sector.


  Tomorrow, June 18th, an NHI Oireachtas Open Day will take place in Leinster House. Private and voluntary nursing home representatives from across the country will engage with their national representatives to outline the critical role the sector plays in meeting the current and growing healthcare requirements of our older population.
