What Is Assisted Living?

Shona McFarlane Retirement Village

Assisted-living apartments come with support that makes life easier, like housekeeping and a chef-prepared meal every day. It’s great for you, and reassuring for your family, because they know you’re being looked after. Best of all, that extra support creates more time for fun!

Apartments are in the heart of the village, with easy access to everything the village has to offer. The feeling of togetherness is the real icing on the cake for assisted-living residents. This is enhanced by a variety of outings, regular transport options and endless opportunities to join in with activities when you feel like it. It’s a fulfilled lifestyle, it’s an assisted living lifestyle.

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?
