The right care, at the right time

We understand that it can be difficult to make the decision to move into residential care. Here at Brittany House, we specialise in helping you plan that transition, spending time with you in order to map out your unique needs and preferences to ensure peace of mind for you and your loved ones.

Of course, there’s plenty of benefits to being in residential care so don’t be surprised if you find a new zest for life as you indulge in meals prepared by our professional chef , make wonderful friends and enjoy social activities in your new home.

Your Care Plan

At Brittany House, we follow a care plan introduced by Sir Mason Durie, a professor in Māori studies. This bi-cultural model of care called ‘Te Whare Tapa Wha’ is involved in every decision and action we make as we try to build and strengthen all aspects of our residents' wellbeing. Through this, we provide physical, emotional, spiritual and social care to target our resident's overall well being. More information about Te Whare Tapa Wha can be found on our blog.

Everyone has unique wants and needs - it’s our pleasure to talk to you and your closest family to uncover how best to care for you and to create a personalised Care Plan.

You may also find the presence of our lovely nurses and care workers reassuring - their ability to quickly recognise emerging issues and make changes to most aspects of your Care Plan can ensure that potential problems are nipped in the bud.

Should your needs change substantially, we offer a full range of services to enable us to provide you the right care at the right time - from respite to rest home and hospital care.
