With a wide range of activities and outings on offer, residents are encouraged to stay social, active and involved, while receiving professional, specialised care tailored directly to individual needs. Qualified nursing staff are on hand 24/7, plus regular visits from a wide range of specialists such as audiologists, physiotherapists and counselors provide additional assistance and support. Since Cairnfield House is a dual-care facility, clients are able to transition from rest home to hospital with ease on the same premises; assuring continuity of quality, loving care. Facility Manager, Lesley Middleton, recounts, “The Villa itself was built in 1904 as a family home and was purchased back in the late 1980s by a husband and wife team. They had about 12 residents, and during the time they owned it they added a total of 26 beds that were rest home only. I started in 1993, having just turned 30, and it made me realize how much people could want you and thank you for caring for AT A GLANCE CAIRNFIELD HOUSE WHAT: 86-bed rest home and hospital WHERE: Whangarei, New Zealand WEBSITE: www.cairnfieldhouse.co.nz
