Choosing a Nursing Home in Monaghan

Another notable Monaghan contribution to Irish literature is Patrick McCabe. Further notable products of Monaghan are Eoin O’Duffy, father and son Rory and Ardal O’Hanlon, Sir Charles Gavan Duffy, Barry McGuigan, Tommy Bowe and the inimitable ‘Big Tom’ McBride.
Evergreen Care has one of the five private nursing homes in Monaghan - Mullinahinch House Nursing Home, just outside Monaghan town.
Every resident in a nursing home has their individual care requirements and needs. At each Evergreen Care home, those needs are planned for with an individualised plan so that they get the medical and safety care they require. However, if you are considering a nursing home in Monaghan, you will want to know that your loved one is going to get the best of care in a warm environment, but here are some important additional points to consider:
Local Attractions
Many nursing homes arrange excursions for their residents, including our Evergreen Nursing Homes. If possible, try to select one that has a wide range of options that would be of interest to the resident. Are there shopping areas, libraries, parks, seaside/waterways etc in the vicinity?
Transport
Are there good transport links for friends and family of the resident, so that visits are easily made? Bus routes, rail, LUAS – how accessible is the nursing home? How would grandchildren of the resident, who may not be able to drive, be able to get to the home for a visit?
Parks/Green areas
Ideally, the nursing home would be easily accessible to a community, but also have nice parks and/or green areas close by for the resident to enjoy.
