Testimonials
| Thank you so much for your time this morning and showing me around Elms Court. Absolutely fabulous. What a very special place you have there. I was privileged enough to sit quietly for a while prior to us meeting and observe how kind and caring the staff were to the residents sitting in the lounge area. Your programmes are brilliant for entertaining and obviously the residents are kept as busy as they want to be with what's on! “Thank you everyone for your love and care to our father, you did more for us than you could ever understand” “Thank you all so much for the great care you showed for my mother. Also for the support and kindness to us in those last days” “Many thanks for the support and friendship provided to our brother. You have a great team at Elms Court” “A big thank you to you all for your wonderful care, love and support to Mum over the last 2 years. I know that some times it was difficult but your kindness and love was deeply appreciated and will always be remembered” “Thank you for your support during this difficult time as Mum comes to terms with her loss of independence. I appreciate your ongoing concern and helpfulness” “Thank you for the care I received from the staff at Elms Court they made my long respite stay enjoyable” |

The Ministry of Health conducts regular audits of Residential Care Facilities. They can be found HERE.
NOTE: The Retirement Villages Act 2003 (The Act) is designed to provide improved protection for people who 'buy' into a retirement village. If you intend to 'purchase' you must get independent legal advice before signing your occupation right agreement as required under The Act. Some Retirement Village type facilities are not required to register under The Act so different legal requirements apply. Please make sure you investigate fully.
In some villages there may be some Retirement Village units that have multiple uses e.g. a Serviced Apartment may also be used as a Residential Care Suite. The same unit may therefore show in several places on Eldernet.
