01. About Us
Welcome to Esker Lodge
Esker Lodge is based 5 minutes from Cavan town & provides a home away from home for 70 individuals. Our goal is to promote a relaxed environment where individuals can flourish & feel part of a close, caring community.
We provide a home from home in a relaxed setting with caring, courteous staff. Our values enshrine respect for the dignity, independence and privacy of everyone in Esker Lodge.
We differentiate ourselves by being forward-thinking, enabling individuals to contribute to the community & engage in meaningful occupation. Resident and family feedback underpins this.
We are the only private nursing home in Cavan providing independently accredited, innovative dementia-specific care, in an environment developed in line with best practice dementia design principles coupled with independent quality assurance programmes.
03. Why Choose US
A Home Away From Home
We provide care to people living with varying needs including people living with dementia. Esker Lodge is the first nursing home in Ireland to be awarded the Gold Standard Accreditation Award from the University of Stirling, a centre of excellence and thought leader for dementia-specific care in Europe.
Our home has been designed to offer a relaxed comfortable environment divided into two main areas, Killykeen and Dun A Ri, named after two beautiful forests in Co. Cavan. We have both single en-suite and shared en-suite bedrooms available allowing friends, couples and families to share together if this is their preference. In our home there are many comfortable spaces both private and shared available to our residents, their families and their friends to spend quality time together.
