All of our resources and facilities are directed towards continuously enhancing the quality of life of each of our residents. We are committed to ensuring that the tenets of quality service and best practice become the key drivers for all of our endeavours whilst also ensuring that the latest developments and research in the field of gerontology and related disciplines are implemented throughout our homes.

Located in the centre of the building, the dining room is bright and airy while there are a number of comfortable lounges and reading areas. The gardens have been carefully landscaped to preserve the character of the building. Every effort has been made to ensure that the homely ambience of The Croft is maintained.

Nutrition
The importance of nutrition is now firmly recognised in holistic care nutrition and we place significant emphasis upon offering menu options which are balanced and healthy and address the preferences of residents. Choices are offered at all sittings while menu cycles are continuously updated and expanded. Special dietary and medically based requirements are also specifically accommodated as our chefs have considerable experience in these areas. Refreshments and light snacks are always available.

This part of Dublin has many famous landmarks including Kilmainham Jail and the Royal Hospital.
