About Bethany Hill Dementia Care
Bethany Hill is a 30-bed specialist dementia care rest home which provides a protected living environment for people who are affected by dementia and related disorders. We provide long term residential care, respite care, day care and care for under 65 with disability. We are set in a peaceful rural setting with magnificent southern views over Whangateau Harbour and Omaha Bay and beautiful native bushes and hills on our north and west boundaries. Our residents can enjoy watching the chickens and guinea fowls fossicking in the courtyard. Along the way, there are raised garden beds so residents can actively participate in gardening. The design maximises indoor-outdoor flow, with residents free to wander safely through the park-like surroundings without feeling confined. There are farm animals in the neighbouring paddocks, fruit trees and a vegetable garden which residents are encouraged to help tend. We believe that living with dementia does not mean being holed up indoors where it is ”safe” rather the engagement with nature, fresh air, appreciation of countryside and great outdoors each day can bring all kinds of benefits both physically and mentally.
At Bethany Hill, we understand what it means to feel at home and you are welcome to personalise the room with your own belongings. Family and friends are welcome to visit. We look forward to welcoming new residents and making them part of the warm family environment.
We would love to have the opportunity to talk to you about what we can do to help. You are welcome to visit us and discuss your needs with us. Please feel free to contact us.
"Don't dwell on the disease, value the moments, the pearls of wisdom, their smile and humour"

Bethany Hill Dementia Care sounds like a wonderful and nurturing environment for individuals with dementia. The picturesque setting with views of Whangateau Harbour and Omaha Bay, along with the tranquil rural surroundings, surely contributes to a sense of calm and serenity for both residents and visitors.
The emphasis on providing a secure yet open environment where residents can freely move indoors and outdoors is commendable. It allows residents to maintain a sense of independence and connection with nature, which can be therapeutic for individuals with dementia. The presence of landscaped gardens, native bush, and sensory gardens further enriches the sensory experience for residents, offering opportunities for relaxation and stimulation.
The inclusion of features such as bird-watching areas, guinea fowl play areas, vegetable gardens and a chicken coop adds an element of nature and activity that can engage residents and provide moments of joy and connection. It's evident that the design and layout of Bethany Hill are thoughtfully tailored to meet the specific needs of individuals with dementia, promoting their well-being and quality of life.
Bethany Hill places a strong emphasis on the quality of care provided to residents, which is highly commendable. The commitment to maintaining a high standard of care is reflected in the extensive training and support provided to staff members. The combination of on-site training, external courses, and collaboration with organizations such as the Waitemata District Health Board demonstrates a comprehensive approach to staff development and continuing education. This ensures that staff members are equipped with the latest knowledge and techniques, particularly in areas such as dementia care and behavior assessment.
The emphasis on individualized care is particularly noteworthy. By taking the time to get to know each resident personally and tailoring care plans to meet their specific needs, Bethany Hill creates a supportive and nurturing environment akin to a home. Meaningful activities that bring joy and fulfillment to residents further enhance their quality of life and sense of well-being.
Please do not hesitate to discuss with us your needs.
