                  When it comes to the Fair Deal Scheme, our Social Worker Mary Courtney is the person to speak with.
              She’s an expert in helping residents and families understand the Fair Deal Scheme, and she provides assistance to
                                              residents and families with Fair Deal applications.
            Under the Fair Deal Scheme, you make a contribution towards the cost of your care and the State pays the balance.
      The scheme does not apply to convalescent or respite care in a nursing home. However, depending on your healthcare provider
              and your level of cover, your insurer may cover the cost of these. Contact your healthcare provider for details.
Applicants for residency in a FirstCare home must have their Fair Deal application approved before they can avail of State Fair Deal funding.
  To get in touch with Mary, for advice or further information on the Fair Deal Scheme, and/or assistance with the Fair Deal application
      process, call Mary on (01) 699 1070, or visit www.firstcare.ie. It is important to note that we do not charge for Mary’s services.
