500 Irish care jobs unfilled

As many as 500 care jobs all over Ireland are unfilled at the moment, it has been revealed.

Nursing Homes Ireland (NHI) claims many of these positions are located in nursing homes for the elderly.

Tadhg Daly, NHI chief executive, stated that a recruitment freeze in the public sector is partly to blame for the problems in the care jobs sector at the moment.

"We want nurses to be aware nursing homes are offering challenging and rewarding employment opportunities in their own local communities," he said.

Research conducted by the NHI found that there are care jobs available at the majority of homes in Ireland at the moment.

Some 71 per cent of the institutions to take part in the study added that they will be looking to make appointments at some point over the course of the next 12 months.

Earlier this week, the Henley Standard reported as many as 180 new care jobs are to be created at a £40 million development awaiting the green light from a planning committee.
