CareBright Community, Ireland’s first purpose built community for people living with dementia is now open

  • CareBright Community

This new and innovative approach is an option when choosing long term care and will come in under the Fair Deal Approval Scheme.

Beautifully designed for people living with dementia, the Community in Bruff, Co. Limerick has three bungalows, each containing six private rooms and communal living spaces and gardens. The space and design of each bungalow is pivotal in enabling residents to feel a great sense of belonging, comfort and security.

The Community also focuses very strongly on the outdoors. The expansive 4-acre space has a large kitchen garden, sensory and remembrance gardens, outdoor seating areas, bóithrín “little road” style walkways and animal sanctuary. The Community is a lifestyle choice based on a social approach to care. CareBright Community provides a warm supportive environment for people living with dementia.

At the CareBright Community, we are drawing from the 20 years of experience in supporting people living with dementia in the community. Our open plan household design aims to enhance a positive living experience, whilst promoting independence within a supportive environment. 

The Community living spaces are now open and accepting new residents. Later in 2018, the Community Hub with The Yarn Café, social day care, sensory room, hairdressing salon and gym will open its doors providing vital support to residents and the wider community.

If you are interested in being part of the CareBright Community or want to know more about the innovative project, please contact Nisha Joy on 085 2525496 or njoy@carebright.ie
