About Bupa Parklands Care Home
Bupa is proud to offer Hospital and Psychogeriatric Dementia care at Parklands in Papanui, in our beautifully refurbished surroundings, complete with lovely, sheltered gardens.
We have a new, 16 bed Psychogeriatric 'Kowhai' Community, open for bookings now. The space is lovely and light filled.
What sets Parklands apart is our determination to put each resident in charge of their own day, so that the care we give fits around their preferences. That's why we say “your day - your way.” We welcome friends and family at any time. In every way we can, we make sure that each day is the best it can be - for everyone.
Our staff are wonderful, kind people, always ready to stop and have a chat. We have Doctors who visit every day during the week, and a Physiotherapist who works with our residents regularly. Our geriatrician visits fortnightly.
We would be delighted to have the opportunity to talk with you about our care.
