Bloomfield Health Services is an independent not for profit healthcare provider located at the foot of the Dublin Mountains at Stocking Lane in Rathfarnham Dublin 16. It commenced its service provision in 1812 and was originally located in Donnybrook Dublin 4 until 2005 when it moved to its current location which provides a state of the art environment for the care and treatment of its patients and residents. Bloomfield Health Services is owned by the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) and is based on their ethos and principles. The Centre at Rathfarnham consists of two services, Bloomfield Mental Health Service which provides a national neuropsychiatric and mental health rehabilitative service to individuals with complex mental health needs and New Lodge Nursing Home which provides care to frail elderly.
Our Vision and Purpose is to provide a ‘caring community’ where the quality of life of all our patient and residents, their family members and friends, our care teams and guests/visitors will be enriched through mutual respect and empathy for one another. We strive to achieve this by valuing the dignity, privacy, needs, wisdom and individual faith/beliefs of each person through a policy of open communication among all members of our community. To ensure we continue to be a centre of excellence and learning, we foster research and training and encourage our care teams to continue on their journey of learning.
