Welcome to hca.ie
Home Care Association (HCA) is the trade association representing private home care providers in Ireland.
Just a few years ago, the only option available if you needed elder home care was to rely on family or friends for assistance. If this option was not available nursing homes were the only choice. Developments in elder care recognise the wishes of older people who want the benefits of assisted living, but don't want to move out of their home.
The Home Care Association represents quality providers of home care. Our members directly employ, train, background check, supervise and insure caregivers so as to provide a quality service to clients.
Aims of the Association
The Association is constituted in order to promote the following aims:
1. To foster and promote high quality standards of home care services

aa importance to home care
5. To promote the training and development for those individuals and organisations which provide
