Our approach is what we call person-centred; individualised care plans will be provided to every single patient based on their unique needs at any point in time. Whatever they are able to do, be it making their own bed, gardening, or cooking meals, we will encourage them to continue living as normal a life possible. If they need help with laundry, management of their day, food preparations, etc, we will be there to assist. We are actually putting our design through for consideration and feedback from Stirling University in Scotland, which is one of the leading research institutions in the world for dementia and memory care.” Supporting in-home care at The Sterling is their ‘Pick n Mix’ services model, which allows residents to choose from a range of services: housekeeping, gardening, and technology support through to daily meals, companionship, and delivery services. Amenities throughout the village include dedicated putting and bowling greens, a herb and vegetable garden, multi- use pavilion and village green, playground, outdoor settings complimented by plaza, café, club lounge, and bar spaces, a modern reception foyer, and a welcoming health and wellbeing centre. Further facilities for Fitness (gym, pool, spa, and sauna), Entertainment (cinema, study, games and activity rooms, library, chess and croquet), Hobbies (Men’s Shed/workshop, fishing, retail, and more), and Health and Wellness THE STERL ING AT KA I APOI Lime Global. Following the completion of The Sterling, Lime Living plans to acquire and develop additional sites, providing alternative later living solutions for members of the over 65 community throughout Canterbury, and eventually, the whole of New Zealand. “It is our ambition to learn as much as we possible can as management, using our different skills and experience in business and property development, town planning, and retirement living.” Mr. Edwards concludes. “In 10 years’ time, you can fully expect a second village under our banner and more on the way. Our long game is to have a strong brand that is nationally recognised and able to give back to the New Zealand community by taking the best care of its older citizens. The feedback we have had so far on our model is overwhelmingly positive. We also plan to grow internationally- both of my business partners are based in Australia and have an extensive grasp of the Aussie business environment, there’s no reason why we can’t extend our model into that market.” (physiotherapy, salon, community-accessible medical centre), will be added as The Sterling’s development progresses. The Sterling’s managing company, Lime Limited, is part of a broad network of providers that are subsidiaries of parent company Lime Global. Mr. Edwards explains, “We are uniquely positioned in that we are able to rely on Lime Global’s many resources to cover basically every aspect of property development- construction, real estate, architecture, etc.” In addition to their relationships with Sublime, Dev Corp, Lime Real Estate, and Lime Development Ltd under the Lime Global umbrella, The Stirling fosters industry collaboration through their memberships with the New Zealand Aged Care and Retirement Villages Associations. The village’s statutory supervisor, monitoring financial performance on behalf of residents, is Anchorage Trustee Services.
