A Co Roscommon nursing home has received a largely positive report from the health watchdog.
HIQA carried out an unannounced inspection of Drumderrig Nursing Home in Boyle in October last year, the details of which have been published this week.
Drumderrig House Nursing Home provides care for 96 male and female residents who require long-term care or who require care for short periods due to respite, convalescence, dementia or palliative care needs.
Care is provided for people with a range of needs: low, medium, high or maximum dependency.
Bedroom accommodation consists of 66 single and 15 double rooms, all of which have en-suite facilities.
Inspectors found that residents receive good support and person-centred care, with staff described as kind, respectful, and attentive.
Residents spoke positively about their quality of life, the environment was clean and well-maintained, and communal areas were lively with a variety of social activities.
Many residents told inspectors they felt safe and well cared for.
However, the report also highlights areas needing improvement.
Some documentation, including residents' social activity records and parts of care plans, was incomplete.
The directory of residents lacked certain required information, and the complaints procedure displayed in reception was not easily accessible.
