The Sarsfield house complex consists of the Community House, the Chapel and the Day Care Centre

Sarsfield House and Rossaveal Day Care Centres
Sarsfield House is a Day Care Centre for older people, providing meals and transport to 100 senior citizens per week. This service is available from Monday to Friday to people living in Lower Ballyfermot. The main aim is to combat loneliness and to encourage independent living and a greater enjoyment of retired life.
The Senior Citizens play bingo, they have access to social activities and occupational therapy – massage, soft exercises, chiropodist - and a hairdressing service is delivered by a local volunteer three days a week. Mass is celebrated weekly.
In addition, the Citizen Information Board’s Outreach Officer provides service users with information on welfare entitlements, housing rights and legal matters.
Sarsfield House also supplies meals to another Day Centre in the Upper Ballyfermot area called Rossaveal; it opens three days a week and 30 older people attend.
This much needed service is provided by staff employed by the Sons of Divine Providence and staff supplied through the Irish Jobs Initiative Programme and Community Employment Scheme. Volunteers are also part of the work force.
The Centres have become important access points to social and health services for the senior citizens.
