Other services
Kauri Lodge is a small family-orientated 25-bed Residential Care Home serving Kaeo, Whangaroa & surrounding districts. We have hospital level care, rest-home level, respite care & welcome day-stay clients and other cultures whether this is be a gay culture or someone with HIV. We are here for everyone.
Our team of Registered Nurses and Health Care Assistants are supported by our Doctor's Clinic right next door. There is a Registered Nurse on duty 24 hours a day. Activities Coordinator, Physiotherapy, are located on-site. Many of our rooms are very spacious and have a balcony with a rural outlook over the resident's 'cottage' garden. We encourage residents to bring in their own items from home to support them to feel like a home away from home. Most vegetables are home grown in our abundant garden, thanks to staff, residents and volunteers. Several fruit trees and grape vines complete the garden.
We have a dedicated activities coordinator that has knowledge in "Spark of Life" which is a great asset for our aged care facility. Activities are provided for our residents 4 days per week.
