About Lynton Lodge Hospital
We strive for an improved quality of living and our particilar aim is to provide atteentive care that will enhance the medical, psychological, spiritual, cultural, physical and social well being of our patients, so they can live as independent and active a life as possible within personal limitations.
Set in the leafy suburb of Westmere, we are just around the corner from the beach at Cox's Bay and five minutes from the cafes at the Westmere shops. You can often hear the tuis singing in the old pohutakawa tree in the front garden and there is a family of grey warblers to be seen enjoying life in the camellia bush. When you sit on our front verandah you can see the sea and breathe in the coastal air all year round.
We served home cooked, nutritionally approved, fresh, seasonal food and our chef is always very attentive to the special dietary needs of all patients.
The hospital is clean, shiny and bright and visitors often comment on how welcoming and pleasant it is as they step through the door. We strive to maintain a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere whilst ensuring the efficient smooth running of a fresh and up to date hospital environment.
There are pastime and hobby interests every weekday morning and a bus outing to somewhere different in Auckland weekly. Trivia quizzes are well-liked and visitors are always welcome to join in. Pamper sessions are popular with the ladies who love a manicure and nail polish makeover. Assisted cooking demonstrations are good fun when there are pike-lets and savory delicacies to share around.

Group activities include bingo, bowls, movement and music, word games and the very popular trivia quizzes. Residents join in with painting, and art and craft sessions.
