The residents and staff of Rangiura would like to extend a very a warm welcome to this site.
Rangiura was established in 1981 as a Charitable Trust on donated land and is surrounded by large picturesque grounds. Its 'wide-open' situation in a quiet location within walking distance of the main centre makes it suitable for access to the wider community in safety.
We are an Eden registered home and have a longstanding reputation of providing a truly caring and homelike environment where our residents, families and staff are treated with dignity and respect. This is complemented by our dedication to providing exceptional clinical care and we have a full team of experienced and dedicated clinicians and carers to ensure residents are cared for in the manner appropriate for them. (Please refer to our mission statement and guiding principles for further details).
Our Home currently comprises of 30 Rest Home level beds. In addition we have 6 studio units (with Rest Home level designation), ideally for semi- independent living in a safe environment. An 80 unit Retirement Village complements the Home, with some units surrounding the complex, and 34 villas situated at Arts Lane in the main town centre. A further eight villas are currently under construction adjacent to the main Rest Home in Matai Crescent.
In October 2010 we also began providing comprehensive care for older people requiring Level 5 ( hospital level/continuing care) – opening with 12 dedicated hospital care beds, we have since grown to 22 beds, with the additional advantage of being able to provide advice, support and care for residents and their families/whanau requiring palliative care services. As part of this service- we have 12 bedrooms installed with the Romedic- ceiling hoist system. The first system of it's kind to be installed in NZ, this hoist system enables our physio and care team to handle and mobilise residents at the safest levels , and also provides additional oportunites for rehabilitation and incresed circulation/stimulation.
Depending on bed availability we can also provide Respite Care, ACC Rehabilitation Care, Transitional Care and our Day Care programme is well established.
"Fern Haven" , our Dementia Support Home, opened in Dec 2010 and provides dedicated care services for residents requiring secure- Dementia care ( Level 3). This Home is based on the GreenHouse model and is the first of it's kind to be built in Australasia. This service ( which can provide care for up to 20 people) has been very popular since it's opening. The style of care coupled with this unique environment has had a truly postive impact on the lives and overall functioning of the residents who live here, including the well-being of family and friends.
