Special Features
Roseanne is Napier’s smallest rest home. It is a modern home that was built with the aim of being a friendly, family type of facility. Resident’s rooms are set towards the back of the building with the living areas at the front. As the home is built on a corner site these living areas look out onto two streets; the busier Taradale Road where traffic and pedestrians can be watched from behind the safety of a railing fence, and the quieter side road where the main entrance is located.

For a small home there are a number of areas that residents can choose to spend some of their day including their own room, areas outside and seating areas inside. There is a nice flow from the dining room to lounge and this enables people to either sit around the dining room table after meals and chat or go through into the lounge and find a comfortable chair there.

Residents are complimentary about Roseanne and say they like they smallness of the home and particularly the fact that with a limited number of residents staff get to know them and their families well. “Staff members are genuinely interested in what we have to say too, which is nice”. The quality of the meals is also readily mentioned as being a special feature of the service.

Whether you are someone who enjoys their own privacy or someone who prefers the company of others you will find you fit in well at Roseanne. The Manager Colleen says that the staff are here to cater for your special needs and the building of a trusting relationship begins that process.

Roseanne feels homely. It has a nice atmosphere and a good feel about it. There is sense of everyone contributing to the household. Here you will find residents who retain both their individuality and sociability, just as you would in any happy home. Staff are not the only ones to ‘do the caring’; residents can also be found helping each other out with little things where they are able.
