Golden View Care is a new aged care facility. We offer services for those who need long-term or short-term residential care and are not able to live independently.

Our Vision is to create a community where residents in their golden years feel safe, content and valued.

Positioned within the beautiful township of Cromwell in Central Otago, we have rest home and hospital level bed care, a secure dementia unit and a hospice and respite care suite. We provide a continuance of care for our residents from the village to apartments and into our care hospital and home.
