Details of Service

At Cherry Orchard Hospital we deliver high quality nursing care to Older Persons. Our practice ensures residents remain in their local community with better health outcomes, helping to avoid their transfer to acute facilities. Referrals and admissions are accepted from acute services, the community and nearby residential units.

We are committed to the delivery of best practice nursing care to 131 residents with varying complex care needs. This includes: tracheostomies; IV fluids/antibiotics; complex wounds and subcutaneous fluids. We provide an excellent End-of-Life service and are actively involved with the Hospice Friendly Hospital programme.

Each unit is managed by a CNM 2 and CNM 1 and is staffed with Staff Nurses, Health Care Assistants and Multi-task Attendants. There is a medical team with 24-hour medical cover and Allied Health Services (Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Speech and Language Therapy etc). Each unit is supported by Household and Catering Attendants.

Cherry Orchard Hospital has free on-site parking as well as a great staff canteen serving hot breakfasts and lunches. We are situated close to Liffey Valley Shopping centre, our campus has easy access to Dublin city centre as well as to the N4 / M4 and the M50. The bus routes that stop outside of our campus are S4, G2 and L55 with more nearby.
