Testimonials
Testimonials
Jennifer:
"Your Carer has been fantastic. We couldn’t have kept Mum at home without her support.”

Jo:
"Mum was very happy with Paige today—heaps of initiative and bright and breezy. Looks like we have a great match."

Grant:
"Just wanted to pass on some feedback regarding Mia. She looked after Mum last night and did an amazing job. Mum said she deserved a medal. I spent some time with her this morning for a handover and completely agree with my mother."

Catherine:
"The improvement in my dad's wellbeing since Zenaida started has been very noticeable. She's a great worker, and her caring personality is hugely appreciated."

Debra:
"Sherie has been amazing! Mum speaks so highly of her (and Mum is fussy when it comes to cleaning!). On a personal note, thank you to Jarryd, Sherie, and the Private Care NZ team for being there for Mum when I couldn’t. Thank you for maintaining her routine—it has given me peace of mind."

James:
"Thanks so much again for organising my support recently in Christchurch. Much appreciated—it makes my life so much easier having someone I know when I return to New Zealand. Happy Christmas to you and the team.

Sarah:
"I am deeply grateful for the exceptional care provided by Jocelyn. Her companionship, daily reminders, and consistent updates have brought immense peace of mind to our family. Jocelyn's dedication and kindness have significantly improved Mum's quality of life. We couldn't ask for better care."

Connecting you with more support:

Private Care NZ is part of New Zealand’s largest healthcare network, New Zealand Health Group. We are also proud to partner with local brands and organisations to provide extended care and support to provide everything you need at home to make everyday easier for you.

Freedom Medical Alarms are directly connected to 111 Ambulance Communication Centre, ensuring a quick, expert response in the event of any incidents. These simple devices give you the chance to live a full, independent life with the peace of mind that comes from easy access to emergency specialists.

As a Private Care NZ client, you have the convenience of our team assisting you with organising delicious meals to be delivered right to your door by MADE, My Food Bag. Simply choose which meals and nights you want a delivery, and we’ll take care of the rest. No ongoing commitment is needed - just order on the nights and weeks that suit you.

Uber Health - Private Care NZ’s caregivers can support you or your loved one to attend activities and outings such as social events, medical appointments, fitness activities, shopping, and general errands.

Our caregivers can support you to:

  • Get ready and accompany you to and from the activity in a pre-booked Uber.
  • Support you during the activity, if required. And help you get settled in back at home.

Heartland Reversal Mortgages - Heartland is New Zealand’s leading reverse mortgage provider and since 2004, have helped more than 22,000 Kiwis enjoy a more comfortable retirement. A reverse mortgage allows people over 60 to access some of the equity in their home to fund a number of purposes, including freeing up money to cover important healthcare costs.

Private Care NZ partners with U-Plan, who can deliver home care equipment straight to you: from daily living aids such as walking sticks and handrails to equipment like wheelchairs or bathroom aids. Enquire with our team about how we can assist you to get the equipment that you need.
