Benkai Consulting Limited have submitted plans to Kilkenny County Council seeking to further develop SignaCare Nursing Home in Ferrybank, County Kilkenny.
The planned development includes the construction of a three-storey extension to the nursing home with 11 new bedrooms on each floor.
The extension will take the form of a new western wing, creating a U-shaped building set around an amenity courtyard.
There will be a loss of six existing bedrooms to facilitate access to the extension, resulting in a net addition of 27 bedrooms (including three double bedrooms).
The overall extended nursing home will accommodate 82 bedrooms and 86 bedspaces.
The development includes all ancillary site works and services.
A decision is due from Kilkenny County Council on the plans by February 18, 2023.
