The new grass is growing, wireless internet installed for residents separate from staff, hearing loop to assist hearing aid reception in the main lounge, fibre installation, television and telephone service to rooms. While all rooms have ensuites there is also a separate bathroom complete with ceiling hoist to assist patients and residents confined to their bed.

The audit process commenced with the on-site inspection which was very positive and the MOH certification process will advance. This may take up to six weeks following which we will be able to occupy the building with residents/patients. Because of this, we are unable to set a firm date for the move.

Avenal Park Funeral Home supports local organisations who assist people suffering from grief. Able Invercargill is running the Waves Programme, commencing Wednesday 27 February 2019.

Waves is an 8-week programme that aims to support adults 18+ years old who have been bereaved by suicide. The programme combines learning about suicide and bereavement with group discussion and support. The group is facilitated by two trained facilitators and supports members to:
- Meet and share with others who are also experiencing the impact of suicide
- Provide a safe, supportive environment to explore aspects of their grief and reduce isolation and stigma associated with bereavement by suicide
- Gain information and strategies about how to care for themselves and others (including children and young people) after a suicide
- Adjust to living with loss and moving forward

Next scheduled programme in Invercargill:
Wednesday 27th February 2019 to Wednesday 17th April 2019, 7pm - 9pm

To register contact Able Invercargill
Phone: 03 218 2100
Email: adminsld@able.org.nz

Participants must commit to all 8 weeks of the programme. Transport may be available on request.

Grief is a unique and personal process. Nigel, Donna, Chris and Mel at Avenal Park Funeral Home are there if you need someone to talk to, or we can refer you to a local agency.
