Reevedon Home Reevedon Home Reevedon Home
Enliven’s Reevedon Home is warm, welcoming and homely, from the moment you walk through the door. Residents enjoy the vibrant and friendly atmosphere – there is always something going on or visitors calling in on the residents of Reevedon Home. Situated in Salisbury Street, close to Levin’s main shopping centre, Reevedon Home is a community icon and residents make the most of the central location.

Reevedon Home offers rest home level care respite and an engaging day programme. Reevedon Home's sister site, Levin War Veterans Home, also offers dementia and hospital care, as well as health recovery.

At Enliven, we create age-friendly communities where people are happy and thrive regardless of their age or ability. As well as providing day-to-day support and clinical care, we take into account the physical, social, emotional, and cultural needs of each person we support.

Our elder-directed philosophy means we put residents at the heart of everything we do. When you or your loved one moves into an Enliven home, you’re joining a unique and special community. This means we work to ensure the elders of Reevedon Home have companionship, variety and spontaneity, fun, meaningful activity, and purpose in their lives. It ensures that elders are involved in decisions that relate to both their personal wellbeing and what happens at their home.

Our staff are not only highly trained, they’re also friendly, caring and embrace our elder-directed philosophy of care. Our nurses are on-duty 24-hours-a-day and the doctor also visits regularly. We are in regular contact with residents to ensure all clinical needs are met.

As an Enliven home, we’re proud to be more than just ‘family friendly’. At Reevedon Home, your family is part of our family, which means you’ll find there are no set visiting times. After all, family, friends, and the community play a big part in life here.

There are many reasons why people enjoy living at Enliven’s Reevedon Home. We asked some of the residents that live there what they like the most about their home.

"When I walked through the front door it just felt like home. I think it’s the staff and the warmth of the place – it just clicked for me, and the staff are terrific here.”
– Frank, resident.

“Being around children - having them visit after school and helping them learn to read. The best thing you can teach a child is to read.”
– Christine, resident.

“I like living here and I like the people. The staff are very kind to me.”
