#116 Fair Deal Scheme

In this episode of the HSE Talking Health and Wellbeing Podcast, we are joined by Ultan Hynes and Amanda Casey to discuss Ireland’s Nursing Home Support Scheme, or Fair Deal Scheme. The conversation explores the emotional and practical challenges families face when arranging nursing home care, the application and financial assessment process, and the importance of advance planning and open family communication. Listeners receive clear guidance on navigating the scheme, with helpful resources and reassurance that support is available throughout this significant life transition.
