The Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) is the statutory body responsible for the registration of all designated centres for older people, including public, voluntary and private nursing homes. HIQA has been given until 30 June 2012 to fully register all existing nursing homes. Details of all currently registered nursing homes, including the maximum number of residents who can be accommodated; as well as inspection reports on all nursing homes, can be found on the HIQA website, www.hiqa.ie.
