Special Features
Edmonton Meadows Care Home is a one level facility in West Auckland. It has well manicured grounds with spacious open environment tucked away from the main road. We encourage complaints. Your relative will never be disadvantaged by a complaint being made. Complaints draw our attention to the things we are not doing well and give us the opportunity to improve our service. By improving the service our business will grow. We therefore think of complaints in a very positive light and thank people for bringing them to our attention.
