eclr:6062	an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais	nursing Homes Support Scheme
eclr:6063	Réamhrá	introduction
eclr:6064	soláthraíonn an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais ( STTA ) , ar a dtugtar ‘ cothrom na Féinne ’ , tacaíocht airgeadais do dhaoine a bhfuil gá acu le cúram fadtéarmach i dteach altranais .	the Nursing Homes Support Scheme , also known as the “ fair deal ” , provides financial support to people who need long-term nursing home care .
eclr:6065	is í Feidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte ( FSS ) a oibríonn an scéim .	the scheme is operated by the Health Service Executive ( HSE ) .
eclr:6066	faoin scéim seo , déanann tú ranníocaíocht i leith chostas do chúraim agus íocann an Stát an t-iarmhéid .	under this scheme , you make a contribution towards the cost of your care and the State pays the balance .
eclr:6067	Clúdaíonn an scéim tithe altranais príobháideacha , deonacha agus poiblí ar tithe altranais faofa iad .	the scheme covers approved private nursing homes , voluntary nursing homes and public nursing homes .
eclr:6068	gheobhaidh tú liosta de na tithe altranais faofa ón FSS - féach ' Cá háit a ndéanfaidh mé iarratas ' .	you can get the list of approved nursing homes from the HSE - see Where to apply .
eclr:6069	féadfaidh duine ar bith a bhfuil gnáthchónaí air nó uirthi sa Stát agus a mheastar atá i ngátar cúraim fhadtéarmaigh i dteach altranais iarratas a dhéanamh .	anyone who is ordinarily resident in the State and is assessed as needing long-term nursing home care can apply for the scheme .
eclr:6070	an Fóirdheontas Teach altranais	nursing Home Subvention
eclr:6071	rinneadh an fóirdheontas seo a ionadú ag an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais .	this subvention has been replaced by the Nursing Homes Support Scheme .
eclr:6072	tugadh chun deiridh an scéim Fóirdheontais Teach altranais an 27 Deireadh Fómhair 2009 .	the Nursing Home Subvention scheme closed on 27 October 2009 .
eclr:6073	má bhí fóirdheontas á fháil agat ar an dáta sin , is féidir leat a roghnú le leanúint ar aghaidh agus é a fháil nó is féidir leat é aistriú chuig an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais .	if you were getting a subvention on that date , you can choose to continue to receive it or you can move to the Nursing Homes Support Scheme .
eclr:6074	an méid a chlúdaítear faoin scéim	what is covered by the NHSS
eclr:6075	cúram fadtéarmach i dtithe altranais amháin is ea a chlúdaítear faoin scéim .	the scheme covers long-term nursing home care only .
eclr:6076	ní chlúdaítear cúram gearrthéarma ar nós cúraim sosa , cúram téarnaimh nó cúram lae cé go bhféadfadh sé go mbeadh seirbhísí dá leithéid ar fáil i roinnt tithe altranais .	it does not cover short-term care such as respite , convalescent care or day care although these types of services may be provided in some nursing homes .
eclr:6077	Sainmhíníonn an tAcht “ seirbhísí cúraim chónaithe fadtéarmach ” mar sheirbhísí cothabhála , sláinte agus cúraim phearsanta .	the Act defines “ long-term residential care services ” as maintenance , health and personal care services .
eclr:6078	d ’ fhéadfadh earraí agus seirbhísí eile a bheith ar fáil faoi Scéim na gcártaí Leighis nó faoin Scéim Íocaíochtaí Drugaí .	other goods and services may be available under schemes such as the Medical card or Drugs payment Scheme .
eclr:6079	socraítear leibhéal áirithe cistithe don scéim gach bliain agus mar sin d ’ fhéadfadh sé tarlú go mbeadh ar dhuine a ( h ) ainm a chur ar liosta feithimh go dtí go mbeadh cistiú ar fáil .	there is a set level of funding for the scheme each year , so there may be situations where a person ’ s name must go onto a waiting list until funding becomes available .
eclr:6080	más amhlaidh atá , cuirfidh an FSS é sin in iúl duit nuair a scríobhann sé chugat le rá cibé an bhfuil tú i dteideal tacaíochta Stáit .	if this is the case the HSE will let you know when it writes to advise you whether you are eligible for State support .
eclr:6081	aistriú ó chúram ospidéil go cúram fadtéarmach	moving from hospital care to long-term care
eclr:6082	má tá san ospidéal , ach muna bhfuil géarchúram de dhíth ort a thuilleadh , is féidir go ngearrfaí táille ort as cúram fadtéarmach san ospidéal sin .	if you are in hospital , but no longer need acute care , then you can be charged for long-term care in that hospital .
eclr:6083	mar shampla , má tá tú ag fanacht ar aistriú go cúram fadtéarmach , ba cheart duit iarratas a dhéanamh ar STTA chomh luath agus is féidir .	if , for example , you are waiting to move to long-term care , then you should apply for the NHSS scheme as soon as possible .

eclr:6089	féachann an Measúnú Airgeadais ar do theacht isteach agus ar do shócmhainní agus oibríonn amach an méid a íocfaidh tú i leith chostas do chúraim .	the Financial Assessment looks at your income and assets in order to work out what your contribution to the cost of your care will be .
eclr:6090	an FSS a íocfaidh iarmhéid chostas do chúraim .	the HSE will then pay the balance of your cost of care .
eclr:6091	tacaíocht Stáit a thugtar ar an íocaíocht seo ón FSS .	this payment by the HSE is called State support .
eclr:6092	ní mór do gach iarrthóir Céimeanna 1 agus 2 a dhéanamh .	all applicants must complete steps 1 and 2 .
eclr:6093	céim 3 is ea iarratas roghnach ar an Iasacht Teach altranais , is é sin le rá , má theastaíonn uait an chuid sin den ranníocaíocht atá bunaithe ar do bhaile nó ar réadmhaoin eile a chur siar .	step 3 is an optional application for the Nursing Home Loan , that is , if you want to defer paying the part of your contribution which is based on your home or other property .
eclr:6094	ba cheart an fhoirm iarratais a chomhlánú agus ní mór don té atá ainmnithe ar an bhfoirm iarratais an fhoirm a shíniú .	the application form should be completed and signed by the person who is applying for nursing home care .

an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais

nursing Homes Support Scheme

eclr:6063

Réamhrá

introduction

eclr:6064

soláthraíonn an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais ( STTA ) , ar a dtugtar ‘ cothrom na Féinne ’ , tacaíocht airgeadais do dhaoine a bhfuil gá acu le cúram fadtéarmach i dteach altranais .

the Nursing Homes Support Scheme , also known as the “ fair deal ” , provides financial support to people who need long-term nursing home care .

eclr:6065

is í Feidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte ( FSS ) a oibríonn an scéim .

the scheme is operated by the Health Service Executive ( HSE ) .

eclr:6066

faoin scéim seo , déanann tú ranníocaíocht i leith chostas do chúraim agus íocann an Stát an t-iarmhéid .

under this scheme , you make a contribution towards the cost of your care and the State pays the balance .

eclr:6067

Clúdaíonn an scéim tithe altranais príobháideacha , deonacha agus poiblí ar tithe altranais faofa iad .

the scheme covers approved private nursing homes , voluntary nursing homes and public nursing homes .

eclr:6068

gheobhaidh tú liosta de na tithe altranais faofa ón FSS - féach ' Cá háit a ndéanfaidh mé iarratas ' .

you can get the list of approved nursing homes from the HSE - see Where to apply .

eclr:6069

féadfaidh duine ar bith a bhfuil gnáthchónaí air nó uirthi sa Stát agus a mheastar atá i ngátar cúraim fhadtéarmaigh i dteach altranais iarratas a dhéanamh .

anyone who is ordinarily resident in the State and is assessed as needing long-term nursing home care can apply for the scheme .

eclr:6070

an Fóirdheontas Teach altranais

nursing Home Subvention

eclr:6071

rinneadh an fóirdheontas seo a ionadú ag an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais .

this subvention has been replaced by the Nursing Homes Support Scheme .

eclr:6072

tugadh chun deiridh an scéim Fóirdheontais Teach altranais an 27 Deireadh Fómhair 2009 .

the Nursing Home Subvention scheme closed on 27 October 2009 .

eclr:6073

má bhí fóirdheontas á fháil agat ar an dáta sin , is féidir leat a roghnú le leanúint ar aghaidh agus é a fháil nó is féidir leat é aistriú chuig an Scéim Tacaíochta do Thithe altranais .

if you were getting a subvention on that date , you can choose to continue to receive it or you can move to the Nursing Homes Support Scheme .

eclr:6074

an méid a chlúdaítear faoin scéim

what is covered by the NHSS

eclr:6075

cúram fadtéarmach i dtithe altranais amháin is ea a chlúdaítear faoin scéim .

the scheme covers long-term nursing home care only .

eclr:6076

ní chlúdaítear cúram gearrthéarma ar nós cúraim sosa , cúram téarnaimh nó cúram lae cé go bhféadfadh sé go mbeadh seirbhísí dá leithéid ar fáil i roinnt tithe altranais .

it does not cover short-term care such as respite , convalescent care or day care although these types of services may be provided in some nursing homes .

eclr:6077

Sainmhíníonn an tAcht “ seirbhísí cúraim chónaithe fadtéarmach ” mar sheirbhísí cothabhála , sláinte agus cúraim phearsanta .

the Act defines “ long-term residential care services ” as maintenance , health and personal care services .

eclr:6078

d ’ fhéadfadh earraí agus seirbhísí eile a bheith ar fáil faoi Scéim na gcártaí Leighis nó faoin Scéim Íocaíochtaí Drugaí .

other goods and services may be available under schemes such as the Medical card or Drugs payment Scheme .

eclr:6079

socraítear leibhéal áirithe cistithe don scéim gach bliain agus mar sin d ’ fhéadfadh sé tarlú go mbeadh ar dhuine a ( h ) ainm a chur ar liosta feithimh go dtí go mbeadh cistiú ar fáil .

there is a set level of funding for the scheme each year , so there may be situations where a person ’ s name must go onto a waiting list until funding becomes available .

eclr:6080

más amhlaidh atá , cuirfidh an FSS é sin in iúl duit nuair a scríobhann sé chugat le rá cibé an bhfuil tú i dteideal tacaíochta Stáit .

if this is the case the HSE will let you know when it writes to advise you whether you are eligible for State support .

eclr:6081

aistriú ó chúram ospidéil go cúram fadtéarmach

moving from hospital care to long-term care

eclr:6082

má tá san ospidéal , ach muna bhfuil géarchúram de dhíth ort a thuilleadh , is féidir go ngearrfaí táille ort as cúram fadtéarmach san ospidéal sin .

if you are in hospital , but no longer need acute care , then you can be charged for long-term care in that hospital .

eclr:6083

mar shampla , má tá tú ag fanacht ar aistriú go cúram fadtéarmach , ba cheart duit iarratas a dhéanamh ar STTA chomh luath agus is féidir .

if , for example , you are waiting to move to long-term care , then you should apply for the NHSS scheme as soon as possible .

eclr:6084

the information that you give will be used to complete the Financial Assessment - see below - which decides how much you contribute to your care and how much State support you get .

eclr:6089

féachann an Measúnú Airgeadais ar do theacht isteach agus ar do shócmhainní agus oibríonn amach an méid a íocfaidh tú i leith chostas do chúraim .

the Financial Assessment looks at your income and assets in order to work out what your contribution to the cost of your care will be .

eclr:6090

an FSS a íocfaidh iarmhéid chostas do chúraim .

the HSE will then pay the balance of your cost of care .

this payment by the HSE is called State support .

eclr:6092
