We join communities across Ireland in supporting the Irish Cancer Society on Daffodil Day. 🌻

Many of our residents, families, and staff have been touched by cancer in some way, and today is a chance to honour survivors, remember loved ones, and support vital cancer services.🎗

To everyone taking part, donating, volunteering or wearing a daffodil, thank you for helping bring hope to those who need it most. 💚

Happy Mother’s Day 💐

We honour all the mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, and mother figures whose love, guidance, and strength continue to shape our lives. We also hold in our hearts the mothers who are no longer with us, but whose memory and impact remain deeply felt. And to those who are looking forward to becoming mothers, we celebrate you too.

Across all our Evergreen Care nursing homes, we are privileged to care for so many remarkable women. We are equally grateful for our dedicated staff, many of whom are mothers themselves, who share their compassion and care each and every day 💗

Today we celebrate all the incredible women who make our Evergreen Care nursing homes the warm, compassionate, and supportive communities they are.

From nursing and caregiving to catering, activities, housekeeping, administration and leadership — our team is powered by strong, skilled and dedicated women who show extraordinary care every single day. 💚

To all the women who support our residents, families and colleagues:
Thank you. You make a difference. 💐

Turning the Sod at Middletown Nursing Home Extension.

We were delighted to mark an important milestone this week with the official Turning of the Sod for the new extension at our nursing home, which will add 34 much‑needed bedrooms to support our growing community.

With thanks to the Cathaoirleach of Gorey-Kilmuckridge, Donal Kenny and Anita McLoughlin, District Manager for Gorey–Kilmuckridge for joining us.

Even though the rain poured, the smiles never faded. This ceremony represents more than just the start of construction, it reflects our ongoing commitment to improving our homes, supporting our teams, and above all, putting our residents first.

Here’s to the next chapter and to creating a warm, modern, and caring environment for those who call our home their home.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part in Letter to an Elder Day. Your thoughtful messages truly made our residents feel special. 💌

A very special thanks to the wonderful students of Coláiste Íosagain in Portarlington, who went the extra mile by hand-delivering their letters the the residents of Oakdale Nursing Home.

You brought so many smiles, and there was a real buzz throughout the nursing home today. Your kindness means more than you know. 💚📬

Meet Ty — Our Morale Officer in Training! 🐾

If you’ve visited Dunboyne Nursing Home lately, you might have spotted a very important (and very furry) member of our team - Ty, an assistance dog in training from Dogs for the Disabled.

Ty spends a few days each week with us in the support office, where he takes his job very seriously…
✨ Boosting morale
✨ Demanding pets
✨ Politely requesting treats
✨ And reminding us to smile

He also loves popping down to the sitting rooms to say hello to our residents, who absolutely adore him. In fact, they adore him so much that convincing him to go home with his foster mum afterward is becoming a full-time job… especially when there are sandwich crusts involved! 🥪😂

We’re so grateful to be part of Ty’s training journey. He brings joy, comfort, and a lot of tail wagging to our home. 💚🐶💜

Our nursing homes are getting into the Valentine’s Day spirit, and the decorations are looking sweeter than ever! While our homes are filled with love and connection all year round, we always enjoy celebrating special moments together 💚

This week, many of our homes are also hosting special Valentine’s dinners, complete with delicious food, beautiful table settings, and even a couple of glasses of wine 🍷✨

It’s been wonderful to see residents enjoying the company, the atmosphere, and of course—the sweets! 💝🍬

📸 Don’t forget to check the pages of our homes to see all their Valentine’s photos and highlights!

Grief is a journey no one should have to walk alone 💚

For (26 Jan – 1 Feb), we want to remind our community that feeling the weight of loss is normal, but help is always here if you are struggling.

At Evergreen Care Nursing Homes, our staff are more than just caregivers; they are trained through the Caru programme. This is an initiative by the Irish Hospice Foundation, All Ireland Institute of Hospice and Palliative Care and the HSE. It means our teams are specially trained to support both our residents and their families through every stage of loss with empathy and expertise.

If you need a listening ear or want to know more about bereavement supports, please reach out to our Caru team or call the Support Line 1800 60 70 66💜
