We welcome Liz to Roseneath

Heritage Lifecare from Roseneath Lifecare & Village

Liz took over as Manager of Roseneath Lifecare & Village in May 2022. It was like a homecoming for Liz as she believes she was born just up the road. “From the first day I entered the front door it felt like home,” she says.

Liz’s family association with the Wairarapa goes back to her great-great-great-great-grandfather, Henry Burling, who was the first person to enter the Wairarapa by foot from Wellington. Her early years were on a farm at the Taratahi Training Centre, where her dad worked, and then on a farm east of Eketahuna.

Prior to Liz’s role at Roseneath, she had been a Business Operations Manager in the public sector and had managed several other retirement facilities. She welcomed the opportunity to come back into elder care using her people and management skills.

Liz says, “We have very experienced staff who truly care for our resident’s wellbeing, both in the Care Home and Independent Villas.”

She particularly enjoys the very special homely and friendly atmosphere at Roseneath. “I love the difference I can make to a residents’ life; listening to their stories; seeing the pleasure they get in joining in with recreational activities; and the special care received by our staff. I’m lucky to be leading a team of brilliant, caring staff to ensure that every resident has ‘A Better Everyday’.”

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
