If you were to compare someone in a nursing home at the moment costing on average - and I am taking the very average across the country - about €1,100 per bed, per week with home care, you are talking about nowhere near that figure. You are probably talking about €250 or maybe €300 per week, even when there is someone doing three hours a day for a week.
