How Fair Deal works
- You pay a set contribution, the HSE pays the rest. Under the Nursing Homes Support Scheme (Fair Deal) you pay 80% of your assessable income and 7.5% a year of the value of your assets above €36,000 (€72,000 for a couple). The HSE pays the balance of the home's agreed weekly price.
- Your contribution is the same at any approved home, whatever it charges, so the price mainly matters if you are paying privately.
- Your home counts for 3 years only (the 3-year cap), and a nursing home loan lets you defer that part until after death.
- Fair Deal does not cover extra charges such as activities, hairdressing or therapies, or short stays like respite. Ask each home for its list of extra charges.
- Apply to the HSE: a care needs assessment confirms long-term care is needed, and a financial assessment sets your contribution. Funding starts from the date it is approved, not before.
