The impact of this project extends far and wide with significant benefits for patients and their whānau, our inpatient and community doctors, nurses and family support team and the wider Hawke’s Bay community.
For patients and their whānau
The design of our new home will be better for patients and whānau and provide a purpose-built space to deliver our holistic model of care.
At the heart will be a community care centre where patients and whānau can visit health professionals, attend support groups, day programmes and other therapeutic activities. This hub will support our patients to live well at home.
The inpatient rooms will all have ensuites and space for whānau to stay as well.
