We will ensure that HSE provided community care services remain free of charge. We will improve these vital services by increasing the number of home help hours by 50% by 2021 and by making available a better mix of day and after-hours services. We will ensure that older people who have suffered a serious illness or have been hospitalised will be given the supports necessary to allow them to return to living in their own home with confidence through supports for modification of the home and through a new “reablement” scheme.
