Her words were “XXX was phenomenal” She was so impressed with her, XXX was very considerate and understanding, did a thorough job and was so amazing. I have just spoken to an absolutely sweet 70 yr old lady called XXXXXX who was very complimentary about Ali’s and the service you provide. She said the lady who pops in is lovely and does a fantastic job. A nice way to finish the day I received a phone call from XXXXXXX – She had XXX in today and called to say what an amazing job she did and she was really grateful for the effort she went to, if you could please pass on to XXX My carer did everything I asked him to, he was friendly, and I enjoyed having him. she’s a really hard worker. She did a great job cleaning up her place and was so fast at it. She really appreciated the help. Gretchen is doing an exceptional job. His comments were “Gretchen is polite and well mannered. She is confident and competent when providing care for Mandy. Mandy really likes her.” Joanna filled in for Sunila last week and did a absolutely fantastic job of cleaning Paul’s home. Pauline said Joanna was so polite, easy to talk to and keen to please. She is very happy with the cares you provide and loves the way you take time to chat to her, especially when she is feeling a bit down at times. I just want to say what a great job Kerry did.

Service Description
| As our bodies age, we can’t always do everything we’d like - but that doesn’t mean we have to lose our independence. Ali’s Home Healthcare can provide home and personal support at a level that suits your current needs and allows you to continue leading an enjoyable lifestyle. Our staff are respectful, culturally aware, and will take the time to go the extra mile - whether that’s helping you unpack the shopping, or topping up your firewood for the night. They’ll show kindness and positivity, and they’ll remember how you take your tea! Some examples of ways we care for older people: Popping in to help with small daily tasks - like dressing, taking medication, or getting the house ready for the day. Transport and outings - like accompanying you to the supermarket or driving you to and from your bowls game or book club. Sleepover service - to give you the peace of mind that someone will be there if anything should happen during the night. |

What's New
In August 2024 we celebrated our staff who have been working at Ali's, providing exceptional care and support to our clients. We celebrated with an afternoon tea for our 36 long-term employees. We enjoyed a relaxed afternoon chatting with colleagues, our Founders, and Kelly our current owner. Followed by presentations for staff who have served 5, 10 and 15 years with us. Thank you all have been so dedicated. More recently we have implemented a new staff benefit where every staff goes into a draw to win petrol vouchers for time worked on a particular day, just one more way to show your carers how valued they are. At Ali's, we CARE. We not only pride ourselves on looking after our clients but also our staff and this year we introduced Ali's CARE Penapena Friendly Society. This is like a Christmas savings club for the staff. It means they will have support from the society for emergencies and enable them to save through the year. Penapena is a Māori word meaning, to cherish, look after, save up, and store. I believe this means we will be able to support ourselves and our whanau better in the coming years with the potential recession going to affect us all in different ways. This is just some of the ways Ali's makes a difference. |
