Dovida Announces New Home Care Jobs Boost for Wexford in 2026

Wexford is set to benefit from a significant boost in home care job opportunities as Dovida expands its team in the county. The company is actively seeking individuals from diverse backgrounds to join its caregiving team, responding to the growing demand for personalised home support services. This announcement comes as part of Dovida’s broader recruitment drive following impressive growth in 2025. Dovida currently employs over 4,000 professional caregivers nationwide, supporting individuals across Ireland, including older adults and those with disabilities. The company’s mission is to provide high-quality care that enables people to live independently in their homes, connected to their communities and loved ones. As demand for home care continues to rise, Dovida is committed to recruiting, training and supporting new caregivers in Wexford and beyond. The need for home care services is growing rapidly as Ireland’s population ages, with many people preferring to receive care at home rather than in residential settings. Shane Jennings, CEO of Dovida Ireland, explained: “The need for care and support in the home is growing as our society ages, and personalised home support services are preferred to residential care. We are proud to be able to offer local jobs that empower people to live in their homes, connected to their families, friends and communities.” Dovida’s General Manager for Wexford, Martin Murphy, added that many of their caregivers have transitioned from careers in sectors like retail, hospitality and customer service. "Caregiving offers the opportunity to give back to the community while fitting into your lifestyle," he said. "A lot of people also come to us having had previous experience caring for a family member and have realised this is something they are truly passionate about." Dovida is inviting both experienced healthcare professionals and those new to caregiving to apply. With its extensive training and support, Dovida ensures that all employees feel confident and equipped in their roles.
