Description
No matter how much you love the person you're caring for, providing full time care around the clock is tiring. And with families spread across the country or overseas, there’s not always someone available when you need a break.
That’s where we can help. Kerikeri Retirement Village offers Respite Care for the elderly in a safe and caring environment.
There are plenty of stimulating activities to keep their mind active and, depending on their physical health, lots of fun outings for those who enjoy company.
We have a Registered Nurse on duty around the clock seven days a week so you can relax knowing that they are well taken care of.
We also offer palliative care which means and can offer hospital level care and comfort to all concerned during the end stages of care.
