Referral Information

Nua Healthcare is a service provider to the Health Service Executive, individuals and their families. 

The Referral Process for Residential Care:

1. Initial contact is made by an Individual, a Family member, a Clinician or a HSE Representative
    
2. A formal referral is then made by the HSE / Clinician
    
3. We conduct a provisional assessment to assess suitability for residential assessment
    
4. If suitable, a proposal is submitted to stakeholders for provision of 12 week Residential Assessment. Clinical assessments (Psychiatric, Psychological, Speech and Language, Occupational Therapy, etc) will be determined at this point but may be added to during the assessment period.
    
5. If accepted:

• Appropriate documentation is signed with the individual, their family and the HSE
• A discharge date is set 12 weeks from the point of admission. 

      6. The 12-week assessment is broken into two parts:

• 8 week assessment period - at the end of which, the assessment report and recommendations are submitted to stakeholders for consideration. 
• Followed by a 4-week period of consideration during which stakeholders can decide on actions resulting from the outcome of the assessment.

 The Referral Process for Community Outreach and Day Services:

 Referrals for community outreach and day services do not require admission.

 Referrals can be made by calling us on 045 856592 or by emailing info@nuahealthcare.ie
