It provides a welcome break and peace of mind knowing that your loved one will receive round-the-clock care from friendly, experienced care teams.
May Kitchen knows how important it is to provide carers with a break. After visiting her husband Stuart in respite care at a Ryman village, she was tempted to move in herself! “If it was me, I think I would enjoy it because it’s just so beautiful and the food is good.”

Precautionary flood measures have been planned for Wanaka and Wakatipu lakes as levels remained high overnight, with high alerts recorded at both lakes. A large crew of volunteers have been pitching in around Wanaka to place sandbags around low-lying businesses.
The council says sand and sandbags are available from the Dunmore St car park if needed. The Millennium Track and Outlet Track are also closed. They will stay closed until water levels drop.
