At Elmswood, we provide a genuine home for people. One where there is love, joy and laughter, as well as excellent care and the ability to be as independent as you are able to be.

We offer a continuum of living options from the independence of our villas and serviced apartments & studios to personalised care in our rest home and hospital. Our residents say that not having to worry about going somewhere new, if they need extra care, brings them great peace of mind.

We also know our residents love our location at 131 Wairakei Road. Were literally 15 minutes from almost anywhere in Christchurch  close to town, a short drive to the airport, and easy to reach for families as they travel to and from home and work.

Respite and daycare are also available.

Activities and entertainment are offered throughout the week in the Rest Homes large main lounge.
