Harold McCauley House (opened in 1992) is the first Nursing Home to be established by the Presbyterian Residential Trust. The aim is to provide nursing care and support primarily for elderly people within a Christian environment.

The Home is situated in a secluded, tranquil setting close to the town centre of Omagh with rear views of the Camowen River. Through Assessment Care Plans and Reviews, staff will be encouraged to enable residents to continue pursuing their individual interests as well as developing new ones and build on the positive aspects of their life.

The Home strives to provide a warm and friendly environment, allowing residents to be treated with dignity and respect, and encouraging them to retain/achieve more independence. Staff place great emphasis on incorporating choice and freedom in meeting the residents' physical, social, emotional and spiritual needs.

The Home can accommodate 32 residents and the importance of privacy is indicated by the provision of 28 single bedrooms and 2 double bedrooms. All rooms have en-suite wash hand basin and toilet.

There are two sitting rooms, a quiet room, spacious dining room, lift, treatment room and hairdressing facilities. Nursing staff are on call 24 hours per day. The Home seeks to provide care in a specifically Christian ethos and environment. Regular worship services and fellowship times are held within the Home and a conscious effort is made to ensure residents are offered spiritual support and encouragement when requested.
