Welcome to St. Michael's DCC

From the cradle to the grave, community is the net that keeps us all together.

St. Michael’s DCC combines health and wellness in the provision of social connection services to the senior members of our community.  Our goal is to improve the lives of our members through the delivery of emotional and social supports while advocating on their behalf.  Our service is for older people who are living in our local communities across East Co. Limerick and surrounding counties.  Our service fosters friendship and companionship within our rural community.

We provide our members with access to meaningful therapeutic activities within a safe homely environment.  Our centre is an all-inclusive social environment for older people who may be isolated and / or housebound, allowing them to remain connected and valued as an active member within their community. 

We empower our members to retain their independence, and continue to actively participate socially.  Our focus is on their wellbeing, while caring for each individual in a dignified and respectful manner.

Within our holistic approach, we fill our days with social, recreational and educational activities driven by our members needs and desires.  We enjoy a fun-filled programme, concentrating on improving health and wellbeing while bringing joy and laughter to each day.

Our dedicated staff and volunteers engage with our members providing them with a safe haven enabling them to retain their independence and feel connected to the larger community while celebrating life in their later years. 

We offer the opportunity to come and relax, meet and make new friends, improve your skills, learn new ones and enhance your overall quality of life.  You can have a homemade, nutritious dinner while participating in many fun activities that lift the spirits and improve personal wellbeing.  Our service improves self-esteem and encourages socialisation through fun activities with our golden age members in a safe and encouraging atmosphere.

We dance, sing, and laugh together in an open all-inclusive setting.  We are advocates for our members offering practical advice and understanding in support of their independence.  In addition, we provide access to chiropody, hairdressing and non-acute nursing support to our members.
