St.Teresa’s is a Residential Home where older people are valued and respected and where they have choice and control of their lives. St. Teresa’s is owned by The Sisters of Mercy whose special work is to teach, care for the sick/elderly, give shelter to the homeless, visit prisoners etc. The Sisters were founded in Ireland in 1831 by a young woman called Catherine McAuley. St. Teresa’s Rest Home is located in Fishguard overlooking the Harbour and Goodwick beach. The Marine Walk, part of the coastal path, runs directly in front of the Home. All of these can be seen from the viewing point on the way down to our chapel. We, at St. Teresa’s continue to be committed to Catherine McAuley’s ideals by providing a service for 27 elderly men/women. The age range we cater for is from 65 upwards offering personal care to the more able bodied residents, but we can offer a wider range of care to Individuals with macular degeneration or complete blindness.
