Welcome to Radius St Joans Hospital.
We specialise in providing 24 hour nursing care for the young disabled and the elderly who have chronic or long term illnesses. Built on a sunbathed hillside overlooking Auckland's Panmure Basin, with views to One Tree Hill, Mt.Eden, Mt, Hobson and Mt Wellington our hospital is set amongst generous landscaped grounds designed to make the most of this spectacular location. At St Joans we improve quality of life by providing a safe and caring environment in which special needs are met. Our professional teams comprise qualified, experienced staff who understand all aspects of working with the elderly and the disabled. Our work goes beyond the medical needs of residents. Our approach is holistic; looking after people in both a physical and emotional sense. We work with families and relatives to assist their loved ones make the transition from the familiarity of their own homes or previous residence to a new home with us. |
