Description
The Nurse Maude Care Home is a 75-bed facility specialising in long-term hospital level, residential, respite, and palliative care.
Designed for people with complex medical needs, chronic health conditions, or limited mobility who require ongoing nursing oversight and hands-on care for 24 hours a day. This may include help with medications, wound care, continence support, mobility assistance, and monitoring of long-term conditions. Many residents have multiple health needs, and some may also be receiving palliative care.
At our Care Home, residents receive this specialised nursing care in a warm, welcoming environment that feels like home - with the added reassurance of clinical expertise always close by.
Nursing, physiotherapy, activities, volunteer support, hairdressing, podiatry and pastoral care are all available.

How do I access this service?
Referral
Access to aged residential care is usually by referral from a GP, public hospital, or another health professional. A Needs Assessment and Service Coordination (NASC) assessment through Older Person’s Health is required to determine the appropriate level of care.
If hospital-level care is approved, eligibility for Ministry of Health funding will be assessed, including a means test through Work and Income (WINZ). Our team can help guide you through this process.

You are welcome to contact us to discuss care options, arrange a visit, or enquire about private (self-funded) care.
