It’s hard to put your finger on why Ryman care centres just feel different. Perhaps it’s our constant drive to improve through innovations such as our myRyman Care app and Delicious menu, or perhaps it’s the genuine warmth of the care we provide.

Our 'Experience the Care Difference’ guide paints a picture of the care, kindness and comfort that our residents experience every day. It offers a comprehensive guide to rest home, hospital and specialist dementia care, as well as our serviced apartment options.

Council has already started road upgrades and resurfacing, making the most of the coming season of dryer weather and longer days. Major roading rehabilitation projects have also kicked off for the summer roadworks season with Council programming the complete rebuild of 6.3km of existing sealed road, including two major arterial roads, Mill, and RewaRewa. Almost $11.7 million will be invested in our sealed renewal network between now and 1 July next year.
