Empowering Older Citizens: Age Action Calls for Increased Homecare Support in Dublin and Ireland

May 18, 2026

Elderly Persons Pension Pot for Homecare

Welcome to homecarer.ie, your reliable source for exceptional home care services in Dublin and Ireland. As we advocate for the well-being of older citizens, we want to highlight Age Action Ireland’s important calls for increased homecare support and investment in community care services.

Age Action’s Campaign for Better Homecare

Age Action Ireland, the leading advocacy organisation for older people in Ireland, has consistently called on the Government to significantly increase investment in home care services. Their research shows that adequate homecare provision allows older people to live independently in their own homes for longer, improving quality of life and reducing the pressure on residential care and hospital services.

The Case for Homecare Investment

The evidence is clear: homecare is both better for older people and more cost-effective for the health system. A comprehensive homecare package costs significantly less than a nursing home place, while allowing older people to remain in the communities and homes they know and love.
