Palliative care at Eldernet Showcase is centred on comfort, dignity, and supporting both the resident and their whānau through one of life’s most sensitive stages. Our approach focuses on easing symptoms, reducing discomfort, and creating a peaceful, reassuring environment where every moment can be lived with meaning and connection.

From the moment a resident begins palliative care with us, our team works closely with health professionals, family members, and the resident themselves to understand their preferences, values, and wishes. Care plans are deeply personalised, ensuring physical, emotional, cultural, and spiritual needs are honoured. We take time to listen, to adapt, and to provide support in ways that feel right for each individual.

Our dedicated nurses and caregivers are trained in advanced comfort care, ensuring pain relief, symptom management, and gentle assistance are delivered with compassion and attentiveness. The atmosphere within our palliative care spaces is calm and nurturing, with soft lighting, familiar comforts, and the option to personalise the room so it feels more like home.

Families are welcomed as partners in care. We encourage whānau to spend time with their loved one in a private, peaceful setting, and we offer guidance, reassurance, and emotional support throughout the journey. Whether it’s explaining changes, helping process emotions, or simply being present, our team walks alongside families with empathy and respect.

Meaningful moments matter deeply in palliative care. We create opportunities for residents to enjoy music, quiet reflection, gentle touch, nature views, or time with treasured people. Our staff are attentive not only to physical needs but also to the small details that bring comfort and connection.

At Eldernet Showcase, palliative care is not just a clinical service — it is a commitment to honouring life, supporting dignity, and ensuring no one walks the journey alone. Our goal is to create a peaceful, supportive environment where residents feel safe and cared for, and where families can find strength, understanding, and comfort during this important time.
