Framed by beautifully-maintained lawns, trees and rose gardens, Redwood provides a high standard of rest home and hospital care.

The daily care fee, which is set under our contract with the local health authority, covers a core care package. Other services are available on demand for an additional charge.

These core services are covered by the daily care fee:
•Accommodation, meals, cleaning and laundry
•Nursing and other care, plus other health services if prescribed by a doctor
•Doctor’s visits once a month (or every 3 months at the doctor’s discretion) plus emergency visits
•All prescribed medication costs (Pharmac approved)
•Activities programme

Activities and outings

There’s plenty to do for those who are in the mood for recreation – craft activities, games and puzzles, exercise sessions, housie, sing-alongs, reading in the library, movies, concerts, billiards and excursions, just to mention a few. Our recreational therapist keeps programmes varied and interesting.

Delicious meals

Nutritious home cooked meals are served in the dining room, or in your room if you’re not feeling well. Breakfast in bed is always an option. Emphasis is on a tasty menu of family favourites. All meals are prepared and cooked on site by our professional kitchen staff and special diets are easily catered for.

Visits from friends and family

Family and friends are welcome, visiting hours are 10am to 6pm. You can entertain in your room, or use the home’s lounge areas. Redwood’s communal lounge can be booked for special family occasions. As a family member, you can discuss things as and when you want.

Please phone (03) 578 7691 to find out more.
