Nestled in the heart of Kumeu wine country, overlooking Kumeu River Winery and surrounded by picturesque grounds, Kumeu Village is a rest home with a difference. We don’t just care for our residents – we’re on a mission to provide a real home, rich with experiences and companionship.
Kumeu Village is a true community where our elders can live active and varied lives complete with autonomy and dignity. Our Home is privately family owned and operated. While having lived locally for more than thirty years, now settled in Coatesville.
Our home is managed by our Clinical Leadership team who are all registered nurses: Debbie McCusker, Director of Nursing, Gem Medina, Clinical Manager. Between the clinical team, Kumeu Village have decades of experience offering the best resident-centered care to our Elders.
We are very proud of our staffing ratios at Kumeu Village – we provide over 100 care staffing hours extra per day than what is required by the DHB. We are more than happy to show you our roster and are extremely proud that we can provide this level of care to our Residents.
Choices are also very important to us – choice when it comes to what the Resident wants to eat and when, our Kitchen is equipped to provide something extra if you don’t like what’s on the menu for the day and you can eat at whatever time of the day you please. We also have a full cafe with items that are prepared daily from scratch by our Cooks and Bakers, so that visitors can enjoy a meal with Residents too. The choice to sleep-in and stay up late too! There are no set ‘bedtimes’ at Kumeu Village.
Our Management Team – we have a team of five managers who are available 24/7, we pride ourselves on having an open door policy for Residents, Families and Staff and our Reception is happy to help for any queries.
Kumeu Village have over nine years of experience The Eden Alternative® and while independent now, we continue to offer ‘Residents First’ in house ongoing training to our team.
