Other services
From the moment you walk into the reception entrance and hear the concert grand piano, you know you have arrived in a very special place. Our luxurious interior design and amenities would not be out of place in a 5-star hotel, and our exceptional staff provide the very best of care and support to our residents and families.
We have incorporated the use of world leading technology to improve the health of our residents, whilst maintaining a truly luxurious home style living experience. When the Care Centre is completed in 2027, there will be a total of 80 care suites to compliment Tamahere Country Club’s existing Independent Villas. The amenities will include a dedicated gym, spa therapy, cinema, library, chapel, music and arts room, games room and private dining. The spaces are very generous, and also incorporate many smaller areas for residents and families to relax in.
Sanderson’s reputation for quality can be seen in all that we do, and our Care Centre is a place where residents will take pride in calling this home. I invite you to contact us for more information and to come and see the Care Centre that will redefine how aged care is delivered in New Zealand.
