Dementia Care New Zealand is one of New Zealand’s highly regarded aged care providers.
We provide a full range of residential care including general rest home care, dementia rest home care, general hospital level care, and dementia hospital level care. At many of our facilities, a full continuum of care is available.
We specialize in person-centred care for people who live with dementia. This is the work we have passionately chosen to do.
We care for people in small, cosy homes with a loving, warm and homely atmosphere where each person is supported to experience each moment richly. Our small homes concept means that people with dementia experience life in a less clinical and more normalised, familiar way. Small homes that inter connect, also bring a sense of ‘community’ for a person with dementia.

We offer 24 hour Registered Nurse coverage to all of our residents at Millvale House Levin.

In all our homes, care is provided in a relaxed small-home environment as much like a family home as possible. There are open plan living areas, small kitchenettes, and gardens with
sheltered spots to sit and enjoy the sun and the sound of birds. People are encouraged to maintain their familiar roles if they wish, taking part in homely activities such as baking, flower arranging and gardening. This supports a sense of purpose and value.

Our staff are trained in the ‘Best Friends’ model of care, connecting with each person as we would a very best friend. We accept you as you are, believe in you, respect you, really listen to you, joke with you, and love to hear you laugh.

We believe that our philosophy of care gives people the greatest possible opportunity of being as happy and healthy as they are able to be.

We are a small facility looking after only 30 residents.

Millvale House is divided into two small homes, both with easy access to a garden. Haumaru has wooden decking outside for the residents to enjoy, while the Aroha Nui garden has a more extensive walking area, as well as a sensory garden and a vegetable garden. All rooms have garden views.
