Passage Healthcare International (Ireland) Limited ran the Lucan Lodge Nursing home and Sally Park Nursing Home in Firhouse

The High Court has appointed provisional liquidators to the operator of two Co Dublin based nursing homes.

The judge said that company’s difficulties were primarily caused by the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. This had resulted in lower occupancy rates at its nursing homes, and an increase in the firm’s costs, he noted.Woman who died after dog attack at her home in Co Limerick named locally‘I thought my legs would turn to jelly’: Reaction to day one of Leaving Cert and Junior Cycle exams

The company expended large sums of money to rectify those issues, but ultimately it was not possible to resolve matters and Hiqa cancelled that facilities registration as a nursing home. Counsel said that following the failure of the examinership process the company no longer has the protection of the court, and the firm’s board of directors had passed a resolution that it be wound up.
