All that we do at Tamahere Eventide is grounded on our Christian beliefs. At our core is the belief that we all possess an intrinsic dignity, as humans created and valued by an all-loving God. We aim to practise this care, value and love in all of our practices with our residents, affirming the meaning, dignity and beauty of old age.

Our Philosophy of Aged Care:

• We believe that the whole of life, from birth to death, has meaning and purpose. Old age is an intrinsic part of all the previous years that a person has lived.
• Where possible, we encourage residents to make decisions and choices, which affect their life.
• We express a concern for the wholeness of the person by providing an environment that meets the needs of the whole person – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
• We provide for elderly people regardless of race, culture and creed.
• We respect individual needs and preferences, encouraging participation in programmes and activities whilst allowing residents freedom of choice.
