The listed price is not necessarily what a Fair Deal resident pays

These figures are the full maximum agreed weekly prices on the HSE list. Under the Nursing Homes Support Scheme, the resident pays a means-tested contribution and the HSE pays the balance. The contribution is based on the applicant's income and assets, not on whether the chosen approved home appears near the top or bottom of this price table.

Method: FairPath sorts all private and voluntary homes in the current HSE NHSS maximum-agreed-price dataset from highest to lowest and displays the top 10. Public HSE units are excluded from this ranking because their published cost structure is different and they are compared separately on the HSE public nursing homes page.
