Helping our community nurses
Building closer relationships with aged residential care (ARC) facilities, like Kemp Home & Hospital, plays an important role in our efforts to reduce hospital admissions through our Community Health Services (CHS) district nursing teams. Staff are now more confident in their practice, and unnecessary hospitalisations are avoided - better for patients, and their families. Read more here
Health services for older people
Growing older is something we should all celebrate. The wealth of skills, knowledge and wisdom that older people bring to our community is invaluable. So rather than focusing on the mental and physical decline that can come with ageing, many older members of our community are focusing on how they can remain active physically, emotionally and socially.
This section of the website brings together information about the support services available to older people and their families/whanau in the Wellington region.
Unless it's an emergency your General Practice should always be your first choice.
