Home Care in Whakatane
Compassionate care, right at home — tailored to your whānau’s needs
At Awhina Health Care, we specialise in dementia and personalised in-home support. Our trusted caregivers help clients remain safe, comfortable, and independent at home, while giving families peace of mind.
We aim to create a supportive environment that feels natural and comforting, so clients can continue living life on their own terms.
Our mission is simple: to keep clients safe, comfortable, and independent in the place they know best — their home.
We recognise the importance of maintaining dignity and a sense of control, especially when facing age-related changes or health challenges.
Our caregivers are trained to offer gentle, respectful support that encourages independence while providing assistance where it’s most needed. From help around the home to ensuring medications are taken on time, we focus on removing stress and making everyday life easier.
Caring for a loved one can be deeply rewarding but also challenging. That’s why we provide families with the reassurance that their loved ones are in trusted, capable hands. With regular communication, flexible care plans, and a compassionate approach, Awhina Health Care offers peace of mind to families across Whakatāne.
