Ballincollig Community Nursing Unit

Welcome to Ballincollig Community Nursing Home, a state of the art home, designed with residents’ care, comfort, enjoyment, security and convenience in mind – and the provision of the highest standard of care 24 hours a day.

Community

Our residents have varying needs from specialist nursing support to general assistance with everyday living. Some stay with us on a permanent basis whilst others stay for short periods of time.

Supporting the Director of Nursing each home has a dedicated team of staff nurses, senior healthcare assistants, healthcare assistants, activity coordinator, social care practitioner, allied healthcare professionals and ancillary staff, who’s focus is to enhance the lives of the elderly residents in their care.

Living with Purpose

We encourage residents to live full, active lives through engaging activities tailored to their preferences.

Our activity coordinators create weekly schedules featuring music, exercise, gardening, social gatherings, and more, offering support that enriches body, mind, and spirit. Residents can pursue personal hobbies or join group activities in communal spaces.

These programmes bring together residents, team members, family, and friends, turning each day into an opportunity to Live With Purpose.

Types of Age Friendly Care

Mowlam Healthcare is thrilled to be the FIRST in Ireland to have our residential care facilities formally recognised by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement IHI as participants in becoming an Age Friendly Health System (AFHS). The participant status is a formal recognition that Mowlam has adopted the IHI 4Ms Framework. This framework is an evidence-based approach to care delivery founded on ‘What Matters’ to the resident, as a fundamental cornerstone of high-quality care.
