Sacre Coeur Nursing Home is located just on the outskirts of Tipperary Town and is within reasonable walking distance of the town centre.
The premises was originally constructed in 1911 and functioned as a convalescence facility for military personnel.

It has been family owned and managed as a nursing home since 1983. The original premises is two storey with a further two storey extension added in the early 2000s, and is situated in beautiful mature gardens.

It is their philosophy to run the nursing home in a way that retains the character and homeliness of a real home in a safe environment.

In total 26 residents can be accommodated and long-term, respite and palliative care is provided.

Sacre Coeur wants their residents to feel comfortable and at home there and to feel able to make choices and to continue with their existing way of life as much as possible, just with greater support and care around them.

What is the Nursing Homes Support Scheme?

The Nursing Homes Support Scheme provides financial support towards the cost of long-term nursing home care. Under the scheme, people who need nursing home care have their income and assets assessed, and then make a contribution towards the cost of their care based on their assessment.

The HSE will pay the rest, if any, of the costs of their care in designated public and approved private nursing homes covered under the scheme. People can choose care in any of the nursing homes included in the scheme provided that the nursing home can cater for the person's particular needs and that it has a place available for the person.


As the budget for this scheme is fixed each year, at times a waiting list for financial support may be in place
