No decision made about future of Bethany House says HSE
Elderly residents of Bethany House can breathe a sigh of relief that their home is safe, for now. However, some members of Carlow Town Council are still concerned about the future of the home and its 28 residents.
Doubts regarding the future of Bethany House first emerged last Friday, when the residents and staff of the home located on Barrack Street in Carlow’s town centre are believed to have been told by a HSE representative that the unit is to close. A recent statement issued by the HSE said that ‘this is not the case,’ and that a “review of welfare homes within Carlow/Kilkenny, including Bethany House, is currently under consideration by the HSE and no definite decision has yet been made.”
