The Russley Village - Retirement Housing ('Purchase')
Christchurch

What's next at The Russley......

The next stage of development is a very exciting time for residents and staff.  The first of our community buildings and 5 new villas are now under construction.   This is a permanent replacement for the old Russley Hotel building.   It is to be called the "Pavilion" this is adjacent to the bowling green and will provide residents and families with a facility until the Russley Homestead is constructed.   This is a two level building and will accommodate the village's snooker table, indoor bowls and a gym on the lower level.  Upstairs, a TV lounge, gas fire, library nook, cafe and light-meal dining will see action all while residents can look from open balconies onto the bowling green. Also lovely outdoor seating area for those summer night sundowners.  Later on, when the main facility is built, the Pavilion will serve as a dedicated bowling clubhouse and craft room/mens workroom.The 5 villa's underconstruction are already sold.

It is prudent to say that to really appreciate what we have to offer, a visit to the Russley will reveal so much more.

RESPITE CARE

We wish to remind people that we are still running a dedicated respite care room at both Admatha and Avonlea Dementia Rest Home care facilities. This means families/carers can book respite care in advance.

Carers can prepare for time out in advance, knowing that their loved one has a booked room in a well established home that specializes in care of people who have dementia.

It is very important that carers have time to relax and take care of themselves. Taking a break can help with this.

We believe that most people want to stay at home as long as possible. We work hard to make sure people who come for respite care go home as good as or better than when they came into our care.

At both Admatha and Avonlea, we create a loving and homely atmosphere where each person is supported to experience each moment richly. This is our vision. We achieve this vision through our values: By honouring the uniqueness of each person, the immense value of each person, openness, honesty and integrity.

Please feel free to contact me anytime to enquire about our homes and about our respite care service. I would love to meet with you and I hope that I will be able to assist you.

I look foward to meeting with you.

Puriri Court - Rest Home Care
Whangarei
Well, its a new year, lots of plans and resolutions have been made, (and in the case of resolutions, no doubt already broken if my own are anything to go by)!!!!
The Xmas decorations have been put away for next year, and our activities programme is underway already! The bus has been out and about, we have had happy hour, and Shelly is whizzing up some more exciting things for our folk to do as I write. We pride ourselves on our Activities programme, as it is such an important part of what we do. Unfortunately the bad weather has been a dissapointment, we have been unable to use our spacious decks for morning/afternoon teas. Having said that today is a stunner, so hopefully afternoon tea will be outside. I do hope so, as the weekend forecast is not good!  Lets hope the long hot summer we have been promised actually does happen!!!
We have received many compliments of late regarding our admission process.  One family thanked us for the "painless transition" they experienced when their loved one came into Puriri Court from their own home.  Another said they could not express enough gratitude for the way in which the admission was managed, and the help provided by the team, to help her dad settle in.  The entire team, including maintanence are involved in the admit process.   Maintanence prepare the room, changing the decor as chosen by the new resident, set up TVs, hang pictures etc.  All part of the service!!!!
