"The care of our relative is second to none. The entire staffing team is fantastic, making Glengarry the caring environment it is, from residents to their family members. Glengarry is an asset to our community."

"They (the residents) were promised, “Awhinatia” – to hug embrace, to care for - and that is exactly what my relative has received."

"Mum is so happy here and I am very pleased with her care."

"Thank you to the staff for the care and time that was taken in making my Dad feel cared for and loved."

We are committed to providing a meaningful and flexible range of activities and events to meet the abilities and interests of our residents, considering their individual needs and cultural beliefs.

When you make Glengarry your home, we conduct an assessment with you and your whanau to identify your individual interests and their physical, cultural, creative, intellectual and social needs. We then develop an individualised activities plan to meet your needs.
