Our village motto is the lifestyle you want with the peace of mind you deserve. We are deeply committed to the care of our residents and have an open-door policy that encourages them to come to us with any wants, needs, ideas and concerns. We take care to listen very carefully to our resident’s requests and look after our people and treat them as we would want our own parents and grandparents to be treated. This approach really shines through with some great testimonies and feedback from our residents and staff. We are dedicated to leading by example with the highest quality standard of retirement village living.” Residents provide their online testimony as evidence of Highfield’s open-door policy and carefully considered design approach. “We moved into Highfield in April of 2014. We were downsizing from an acreage outside of Hamilton. We were a little apprehensive about living ‘check by jowl’, as the setup of some retirement villages seemed to be. The developers heeded advice to ensure residents’ need for privacy, and personal space was taken into account when designing the village and its surrounds.” Highfield’s representatives would like to conclude with a shoutout to their suppliers, volunteers, local community, and industry network. “We work very closely with likeminded suppliers- many of them have been involved since the inception of the village. They know our systems and culture really well as a result. We keep everything as local as possible to support our local community, and do a lot by the way of sponsorship with local clubs and sport teams etc. We’d also like to thank the New Zealand Retirement Villages Association (RVA) for their contributions to the wider industry.” Moving forward, Highfield are keen to increase their population and capacity for care, whilst remaining true to their values and fostering a genuine, family-oriented environment.
