Make your home at Elizabeth R Lifecare
When it comes to everyday life, Elizabeth R makes it easy with village, rest home, hospital, day care, respite, and palliative care. The well-appointed rooms all look out onto sheltered courtyards or landscaped gardens and come complete with a 24-hour call bell system and WiFi.
Part of the close-knit Stratford community, Elizabeth R is set amongst a quiet rural area with spectacular views of Mount Taranaki. We’re also just a hop, skip and jump from the Stratford shopping centre, where you’ll find all the essentials including a bank and pharmacy.
We offer everything from hairdressing to speech therapy, physiotherapy, and podiatry. We have a range of recreational activities including happy hour, board games, gardening, crafts, free sports sweepstakes and indoor bowls. Our facility van is also always on hand for outings.
