Origin of Dealgan House Dealgan House Nursing Home was established in 2001 by sisters Nora Byrne and Catherine Farrelly, both nurses with long experience in caring for the elderly. The Home initially had 30 bedrooms but in 2004, a 20 bedroom extension was opened. Further minor expansions brought us to a capacity of 53 beds. In response to the demographic changes occurring in Ireland and the increasing demand for nursing home beds, a further 32 bedrooms and associated ancillary facilities were added on in 2016 bringing our current capacity to 84 beds. Dealgan House provides a range of homely sitting and dining rooms for the enjoyment of our residents. A number of larger rooms will accommodate the weekly mass, Christmas parties, the annual art exhibition and other special events. Dealgan House is registered by HIQA and is subject to regular inspection by that agency.

It is constructed on a spacious, 4 acre site on the western outskirts of Dundalk. The first phase was built around a central garden which is attractively landscaped and contains walkways, benches for sitting out, a variety of plants and shrubs, bird tables and a water feature. When the weather permits, our residents love to sit out in the courtyard to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. The extension currently underway will provide a second enclosed space which is being developed as a sensory garden. The recent extension is comprised of the Tain Suite which has 15 bedrooms, sitting and dining facilities and a kitchenette, and the Sonas Suite, a Memory Loss Unit with 17 bedrooms and all the required facilities. Both suites operate as self-contained households led by a Homemaker. Residents of the Sonas Suite have access to the sensory garden in which they can relax or cultivate plants in raised beds. A large function room was also built as part of the recent extension and provides space for events such as Church Services, the annual art exhibition, Christmas Parties and any other major functions.
