Wimbledon Villa offers a comprehensive range of residential care.
Our rest home care is based in our Rose Wing. Rose Wing is the newest part of our home and has a very 'homely' feel to it.
We offer a very safe environment and residents have the freedom to come and go indoors and outdoors as they please and enjoy our lovely gardens and surroundings. Those rest home residents who are independent can gain free access to and from Rose wing.
Our bedrooms are very comfortable and warm and many have a view of our centralised landscaped gardens. Our home has won many local garden awards and is well known for its tailored outdoor living spaces.
All of our residents receive an individualised care programme with input from their family/whanau always sought.
Our staff are of the highest quality and you can be assured we are 100% committed to meeting all the needs of our residents while maintaining their individuality and rights.
Some of the things our home offers are:
***SUPERB ACTIVITIES PROGRAMME & WALKING GROUP
We have an extensive activities programme run by our fully qualified Diversional Therapist and Activities Coordinator tailored to meet residents needs. Residents and families have input into the programme which includes a walking group, twice weekly outings, entertainment groups, pet therapy, and children who visit regularly.
***IDEAL HOME ENVIRONMENT
In keeping with world best practice and the current MOH guidelines we have no more than 20 residents in each of our separately staffed wings. We have 24 hour a day Registered Nurses working in Rose Wing.
***CLOSE TO PALMERSTON NORTH
We are only a mere 10 - 15 minute drive from Palmerston North. Our home is easily accessible to all residents and their families.
Our facility is based on "Eden Care" principles; a philosophy encouraging one's 'spark of life'.
Our Nurse Manager is a highly experienced Registered Nurse. In addition, we have 6 other experienced Registered Nurses.
We offer an excellent activities programme for all our residents with two experienced Diversional Therapists.
An information pack is available from the home and we invite anyone considering Dementia, Resthome or Hospital level care for their friend or relative to come and visit us first as part of their decision making process.

Testimonials
| I cannot speak highly enough of Wimbledon Villa. My husband has been in Wimbledon for 5 months and he is so well looked after, they are wonderful in the way they care for him. The staff are all very caring and happy and have lots of patience caring for the resdients, nothing is a bother for them. I, as my husbands wife, feel very happy and welcome to the Home to visit him each afternoon. Friends visiting Brian tell me how impressed they are with Wimbledon and I am more than happy that Brian is there. Sue Kitchen |
