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.

Ealga Lodge Nursing Home is a purpose-built facility with mostly single rooms and en-suite bathrooms, providing care for up to 48 residents. Residents and visitors generally feel the care is good, with kind and attentive staff. However, some issues remain with the building's maintenance, fire safety, and record-keeping.
