OUR STAFF

Our staff are our greatest assets. We encourage their growth and support them to achieve all our care goals. Te Hopai is proud to have many staff who have worked for the organisation for over 10 years. The developed skills, continuity and caring attention to detail makes Te Hopai a true ‘home’ environment.

Staff are rostered carefully to ensure that there are maximum numbers of staff at key times (such as breakfast and morning showering). This rostering allows staff to take their time attending to every resident’s personal daily needs in a relaxed manner. Staff are encouraged to spend time talking and getting to know everyone in their care, building deep relationships that support well-being and happiness.
