Visitors as usual (but not if you're unwell or recently returned from overseas)
Eversley is a grand lady overlooking Cornwall Park, boasting a gracious, old-world charm. A small boutique, well-established Care Centre, Eversley accommodates 50 residents in a mixture of standard and premium care rooms. With three levels of care available, Eversley is a fantastic option for rest home or hospital level care, and our staff are well trained in palliative care as well. Our team go out of their way to create a welcoming atmosphere where both residents and their families feel right at home.

Eversley’s location is truly idyllic, surrounded by beautiful, mature trees, looking out over the stunning Cornwall Park stream. Our residents enjoy the advantages of strolls in the park, well established beautiful gardens, bird aviaries and a children’s play area right on our doorstep.

Eversley is located close to State Highway 2, making it easy for friends and family to visit or take you out and about. Local shops and eateries are just a short walk away, so you don’t have to travel far for a coffee or to grab the essentials.

Our residents' rooms are their own oasis. Full of family photos, love and care, at Eversley they can make their room their own. All rooms can accommodate TV's and phones if the resident wishes. The cost of a standard room is included in the Care Services Fee set by Te Whata Ora and Premium rooms have additional features such as more space, an ensuite bathroom or outdoor access, but you’ll need to pay an extra amount per day to cover the cost of these premium features.

Our amazing Diversional Therapy and Activities team offer multiple outings in the van to cafes, parks, sightseeing, or to our other Oceania facility for quizzes or sharing in a morning tea. If it’s music you’re into, enjoy some me-time listening to your own personalised playlist with our award-winning I Love Music programme or escape in our audiobook programme. Whatever you need, we try to make it happen.

With lovely roasts, hot fish and chips and scrummy homemade puddings…there’s a reason why our beautiful dining room is full before dinner! All of the above are regular features on our menu, which is packed with tasty family favourites you’d make at home.

Oceania is a leading provider of premium healthcare services in New Zealand. With over 40 locations across the country, we’ve been part of local communities for over 50 years. We’re recognised as industry leaders in care, winning awards for innovation, food, staff training and community engagement.

When it comes to your care, you know what you do and don’t like – and we want to know your preferences too. Because everyone is different, all of our residents get a personalised care plan, so from meals to medications; everything that’s important to you is covered.
