Our Philosophy.
We believe that it is the right of each person to receive the highest quality individualised care and nuturing and we will aspire to excellence in all our activities. We believe that dignity of all individuals is paramount.
We recognise that in Tuarangi some individuals are not responsible for there actions and that staff must diligently protect others in an atmosphere of empathy, non-judgemental and respectful care.
There are 2 dementia wings at Tuarangi Home. The Twigger Wing is a 12 bed hospital dementia care and the moule Wing is a 10 bed rest home level dementia care unit. Both these wings are modern and purpose built to allow as much freedom as possible.
All the staff at Tuarangi have many years experience in dementia care and all RNs and ENs have had dementia training and all the healthcare assistants have the National Certificate in Support of the Older Adult or are working towards it.
