Innovation in Home Support Conference 2025

Join us for the Innovation in Home Support Conference – a national event hosted by Dovida, Ireland’s leading home care provider.

This ground-breaking conference will focus on reimagining home support for all individuals who wish to remain living their lives in their own homes and communities - no matter how complicated it may seem.
The morning session features insightful talks and illuminating panel discussions with sector-leading experts and influential voices, including:

• Hildegarde Naughton, Minister of State at the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth with responsibility for Disability.
• Mark Pollock, motivational speaker, explorer, athlete, and TED speaker who is exploring the intersection where humans and technology collide to cure paralysis in our lifetime.
• Professor Helen Sanderson MBE, Creator of the One-Page Profile, global leader in personalised care, TEDx speaker and founder of Helen Sanderson Associates, Wellbeing Teams and Community Circles in the UK.
• Tricia Nicoll, Founder of Gloriously Ordinary Lives - a movement that challenges people to see support through a different lens.
• Joseph Musgrave, CEO of Home and Community Care Ireland.
• Tony O’Brien, health analyst for the Sunday Independent and former DG of the HSE.

And in the afternoon, you'll hear from people innovating on the frontline and academics whose cutting-edge research is asking vital questions about the future shape of home care in Ireland and beyond. Topics will include:

• Safeguarding excellence,
• Communicating with healthcare professionals,
• Supporting people to die well at home,
• The role of emerging digital technologies in home care and related ethical concerns.
