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

Lough Erril Private Nursing Home is a well-managed, clean, and comfortable facility where residents receive kind, respectful, and person-centred care. Residents feel safe and enjoy a relaxed atmosphere with good social activities and flexible visiting. The home has mostly single rooms with some twins, many with en-suite facilities, and residents can personalise their rooms and access gardens freely. Some minor improvements are needed in staff recruitment records and contracts of care details.

Long-term care

What inspectors liked

Residents described staff as very good and kind, and felt safe living in the centre.
The home is clean, well-maintained, and has a welcoming, homely environment with personalised bedrooms.
Staff provide person-centred care, respond promptly to call-bells, and support residents' independence and choices.
A variety of social activities and outings are available, and residents can receive visitors without restrictions.
Medication management and infection control practices are safe and effective.

What needed to improve

Some staff files lacked two written references; some references were verbal or from colleagues, not previous employers.
Contracts of care did not always include accurate bedroom details or clearly state the fees residents pay.

What residents said

“very good”
“are kind to me”

Staffing: There were sufficient staff with the right skills to meet residents' needs, and staff turnover was low, allowing consistent care by familiar staff. The management team is present and supportive.
Activities: Residents enjoy a variety of activities including exercise, live music, art, and regular group outings. Staff engage with residents during activities, and residents look forward to them.
Food: Meals are appetising and well-presented with a choice of two meals and alternatives available. Modified diets are catered for, and assistance with eating is provided as needed. Snacks and refreshments are readily available.
