About Daffodil Care Services

 

Daffodil Care Services is one of Irelands leading social care service providers.

 

Launching our first residential service in 2008, we have since developed a range of service offerings providing a continuum of care through residential and community based services.

 

Daffodil Care offers a range of residential and community based services through a national network of registered children’s residential centres, semi-independent residential care and community based outreach support.

 

 

Ethos and Philosophy

Daffodil Care has adopted a positive focused ethos as espoused by Reclaiming Youth International, Circle of Courage, Response Abilities Pathways® (RAP), Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) and Daily Life Events® (DLE).

 

In addition, we believe that everyone has the ability to change; we see problems as opportunities to learn, develop and grow. All Young People and their families have strengths and skills that can be nurtured and we will work to support these strengths.

 

 

Mission Statement

Daffodil Care Services is committed to providing a quality driven therapeutic residential and outreach service to vulnerable Young People and their families. We will achieve this by listening actively to Young People and families, comprehensive multi-disciplinary assessment, treatment and team guidance, embracing the concepts of trust, respect, understanding and empowerment, devising effective individualised therapeutic interventions which focus on strengths, resiliencies, and relationships.

 

 

ISO Accreditation

ISO (International Standards Organisation) is an independent, non-governmental international body which creates and measures standards across several business sectors.  They give world-class specifications for services and systems, to ensure quality, safety and efficiency.

 

Daffodil Care was awarded ISO 9001:2015, in 2018, after being successfully accredited to its predecessor 9001:2008 since 2013.

 

The quality management system adopted, and externally and independently awarded certification confirms Daffodil Care’s ability to demonstrate an ability to consistently provide services that meet statutory and regulatory requirements.  This certification also enhances customer satisfaction through the effective application of the quality management system, including processes for continued improvement and the assurance of conformity to all requirements.
