We’re also competing with the DHBs that recently settled an agreement which was a pay increase, plus a promise to employ something like 500 new nurses across New Zealand. Any new nurses that do come into the country want to go to the DHB. When we do get new nurses, we have to try to hold onto them for a reasonable amount of time to get them to a skill level that becomes an asset to the business. And the number of countries that are accepted for their nursing qualifications is limited.” BVO: What else would you like to share about Sunrise Healthcare? Rosa: “Even though we have three locations we are still in the small to medium owners group, and when big corporations like Rymans build new facilities it does impact our occupancy. But we just try to highlight our special features. For instance, we’re on one level, where most of the new buildings are quite a few levels with limited outdoor areas. Residents in our smaller facilities know the staff and each day it’s the same people, that’s something they like. “Our rest homes provide personalised care in a homely environment. Sunrise Healthcare Limited might not be known widely because it is young and often behind the scenes, but our first priority is to provide the best of care. Our business model, management, and ownership gear us towards fulfilling that promise every day for all our residents.” MANAGE YOUR BUSINESS WITH ONE EASY TO USE PLATFORM.
