Answer 3

No country called southern Ireland. Contact the health boards re employment. This is often paid for by the state.

Answer 4

Well first no country exists called “Southern Ireland”. The country is called just plain old Ireland (you can go ahead & call it the Republic of Ireland either). The south is a geographical area of the country, nothing got to do with the name of a country. Where the confusion probably is arising here is because there is a country called Northern Ireland.

Think of it like this: in the USA there is West Virginia & another state called Virginia not East Virginia. In Ireland there is a county called West Meath & also a county called Meath again not East Meath. So you see, much like calling these places “East …..” calling the country Southern Ireland is just plain incorrect & wrong!

As to your question, what exactly are you asking? What do you want to know about? Rate of pay, how to go about getting a job in this field etc. A bit more info in the question  you will get more useful answers!

Answer 5

yes that would be called being a carer.  There are jobs available for that, but i dont know where you would find them...try monster.ie or loadsajobs.ie for a job search.. you could also go through hospitals or nursing homes to find out.
