Aras Mhuire Nursing Home has been nominated as a finalist in the Irish Healthcare Awards.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank every person who has helped to make the home such a warm and homely place to live and work. This includes the exceptional people who currently work in the home as well as every past staff member, our volunteers, visitors, residents, and families who have been so very patient and supportive of us over the years.
This nomination reflects our longstanding commitment to a rights-based, person-centred culture built around one simple belief — it is never, ever okay for one adult to say no to another. Instead, we challenge everybody who walks through our doors to find a better way to support residents to live their lives as they wish.
Our staff continuously go to extraordinary lengths to support residents to live life on their own terms, whether that means heading off for a pint, attending a concert, drenching staff during a water fight in the day room, or having snowball fights in the dining room. Maintaining fun, laughter, dignity and individuality within the home — even during challenging times — is central to who we are.
A huge thank you to our local suppliers who have sponsored 10 members of the Aras Mhuire family to travel to Dublin this Friday night for the black-tie awards ceremony. John Griffin at first stop food sales, Conor Keane, Electrician, Karol O Connor, MHS, Homecare medical, Seamus Lynch, Lynches oil.
We fully intend to bring the fun, laughter and spirit of our home onto the dancefloor. The Kerry flags are packed already!
