Nursing Homes Ireland is the representative organisation for the private and voluntary nursing homes sector. This sector, and the care our members provide, are key parts of the Irish health service. Private and voluntary nursing homes provide:
- Care for nearly 19,000 residents
- Account for more than 65% of all long term care beds in the country, and,
- Employ more than 18,000 staff
Nursing Homes Ireland was formed in January 2008. It is the single representative body for the private and voluntary nursing homes sector following the merger of The Federation of Irish Nursing Homes, The Irish Nursing Homes Organisation, Nursing Homes Association South East and Nursing Homes West.
Nursing Homes Ireland is committed to providing leadership, supporting members and promoting excellence.
This will be fullfilled by

- Ensuring that providers have a voice in the strategic direction and development of future nursing homes services
- Achieving adequate and fair funding for nursing homes to enable them to provide high quality care for all
- Working in partnership to ensure that regulation is effective, proportionate and transparent
