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

Maryfield Nursing Home provides care mainly for residents with dementia in a rural, purpose-built setting with single and double rooms. Residents receive kind, person-centred care and have access to activities like music and baking. However, some maintenance issues remain, including broken taps and damaged flooring, and fire safety measures need improvement. Residents are not always offered meal choices, and care plans sometimes do not fully reflect current needs.

What inspectors liked

Residents receive individualised, person-centred care from a consistent and knowledgeable staff team.
The home offers a range of activities including music sessions, arts and crafts, and baking, with options for one-to-one engagement.
Staff are trained in dementia care and safeguarding, and residents report feeling safe.

What needed to improve

Some areas of the premises are not well maintained, including broken taps, damaged flooring, and a leaking roof that has not been repaired.
Fire safety is inadequate: fire doors have gaps or damage, some doors do not close properly, and fire stopping around pipes is missing, risking fire containment.
