Care at Metlifecare is deeply personal and always personalised.
Our Aged Residential Care supports every resident to live a fulfilling life in a safe and welcoming setting that feels like home.
We take time to get to know you, so we can better support and care for you. We’ll develop a personalised care plan with you – to understand your preferences and help you to continue doing the things you love.
Your friends and family will always be welcome to spend time with you, and they can join in for meals and celebrations as well as pop in for a cup of tea and chat.
The need for care can be unpredictable, making it hard to guarantee that a care place will be available at times. Although we can’t always control availability, we encourage you to get in touch - we are here to help. People come first, always. That’s our Care Promise.

ABOUT WHANGĀREI PARK VILLAGE
With views of the western hills, Whangārei Park Village has a peaceful outlook over its own ‘village green’ fringed with beautiful mature trees which are visited by native birds.
Rest Home is staffed with professional registered nurses 24 hours a day, and caregivers who are trained to meet individual, special needs. Whangārei Park Village's own doctor visits regularly. There are several lounges which visitors and residents can use.
Visitors are welcome, and residents are encouraged to make the rooms their own, with personal furniture, pictures, mementos and television sets.
Also on-site we offer Hospital Care, Dementia Care as well as Villas for independent living.
