How we calculate this score

Every regulation HIQA judged on an inspection earns points: Compliant 100, Substantially compliant 65, Not compliant 25.
Where the compliance plan rates the risk of a failing regulation, orange (moderate risk) takes off 15 more points and red (high risk) takes off 40. Yellow (low risk) takes off nothing.
An inspection's score is the average over the regulations it looked at.
A home's score combines its last 3 inspections: the newest counts for 50%, the one before for 30% and the one before that for 20%. With fewer inspections the weights are scaled up to 100%.
The trend compares the newest inspection's score with the average of the earlier ones: 5 points or more higher is improving, 5 or more lower is declining, anything else is stable.
Homes are ranked by score within their county and among scored homes within 25 km. Homes with the same score share a rank.

Method v1. It uses only HIQA's published judgments, not our opinion, and is recalculated whenever a new report is published.

What the latest inspection found

Elmhurst Nursing Home provides long-term care for older people in a single-storey building with two units. Residents generally feel happy and well cared for, praising the kindness of staff and the quality of food. The home offers a range of activities and has good access to healthcare professionals. However, there are some concerns about maintenance issues like worn furniture and dirty windows, and some fire safety practices need improvement. Management is stable and supportive but needs to improve oversight in some areas, including maintenance and timely submission of notifications.
