🌍 Today our parent company is celebrating cultural diversity!

We’re proud to say that across Cpl, 35 nationalities are represented — and here in Private HomeCare, our wonderful office, community, and carer staff speak 17 different languages. 💬✨

Caring is at the heart of what we do. Many cultures share a deep respect for elders and strong family values, and we’re lucky to have a team that brings this richness into the care our clients receive every day.

Earlier this year, Cpl retained its Gold Investors in Diversity EDI Mark (IiD) — one of only 26 organisations in Ireland to hold Gold, and one of just nine to achieve reaccreditation. 🏆👏

🧼🌍 Today is Global Handwashing Day!
We believe in the power of clean hands so much to protect our carers and our clients that every staff member has a handwashing reminder in their email signature!

✨ Why? Because hand hygiene is the #1 most effective way to prevent the spread of infection.

✅ Wash with soap and water the right way
✅ Or use alcohol-based gels when soap isn’t available

Let’s protect ourselves and each other—one wash at a time. 💧👏

💜 Today is World Palliative Care Day.

Positive Ageing Week ends today so we thought it timely to share some tips from Age Action Ireland to celebrate and recognise the elders in our lives and in our communities.

- Visit or call an older friend, neighbour, or relative.
- Deliver a meal, run an errand, or simply make time for a chat.

Today is the United Nations International Day of Older Persons — and this year's theme is“Older Persons Driving Local and Global Action: Our Aspirations, Our Well-Being, and Our Rights.”

In Ireland, older people are an increasingly large part of our society. Nearly 1 in 6 people are now aged 65 or over. Over the last ten years, that age group has grown by more than 36%.

We’re living longer, and healthier lives — life expectancy at birth is about 82.6 years, and at age 65, Irish people enjoy 11.6 years in good health on average, well above the EU average.

At the same time, the over-85 population is projected to almost quadruple by 2057, and the number of older people relative to working-age adults is set to increase significantly.

This makes it more important than ever to listen to the aspirations of older persons, ensure their rights and well-being are protected, and work together in our communities to make Ireland a place for all ages.

This also ties into our view of homecare.We believe that homecare is more than just support, it's about helping people of all ages and abilities to live life to the fullest, whether you are staying in or going out. we launched a campaign to "Rethink HomeCare" earlier this year to expand our services to address the needs of Ireland's older population and their lifestyle.

Let’s raise awareness and celebrate the contribution older people make, today and every day.
