Boyne Valley Nursing Home in Dowth, outsideĀ Slane, is one of two more care homes across the country closing its doors.
The business based in a bungalow, began almost 30 years ago and the family-run nursing home now providing long-term care for 18 residents.
The owners did not wish to comment on the reasons for the closure but in recent weeks up to a dozen such businesses have shut down.
