Description

Located about 20-30 minutes’ drive west of Auckland in the beautiful rural setting of Taupaki, Radius Taupaki Gables provides rest home and private hospital with palliative and respite care.

A notable feature of “The Gables” is our central courtyard with a centrepiece gazebo, BBQ area, raised gardens and covered balconies for friends and family to gather. Our landscaped grounds offer plenty of space to relax and to do a bit of gardening. Our residents have won prizes for the garden blooms they have entered for the Kumeu Garden Show. They have even taken out the Champion prize for their begonias!

Our residents also help care for our flock of chickens. They have hand-reared the chickens from eggs, and take great pride in seeing them growing and thriving—not to mention that the eggs laid are used in our kitchen. There is also a workman’s bench for residents to practise their woodworking and building skills. Our activities coordinator schedules new activities and outings each week, ensuring that our residents feel stimulated and fulfilled in residential care.

We want you and your loved ones to feel at home at Radius Taupaki Gables. We are animal-friendly, and have regular visits from local animal rescue groups. We believe in fostering a friendly family atmosphere between our caring staff, residents and their families. It is important to us that you feel cared for, loved and valued when you make The Gables your home.

facility manager - Experience in Aged Care: 24 years+

I began my nursing in Northland, graduating in 1987 and working in aged care for the majority of my career. I have worked for Radius Care at Radius Taupaki Gables for 19 years and am passionate about our pet-friendly, family-oriented care home and our community as a proud West Aucklander.

I believe that aged care is not the end of the road but merely the beginning of a new life phase with so much living to do. Many of our residents have been in our care for many years and have truly become part of our own families. Our team is handpicked, highly skilled, and devoted to the care of you and your loved ones, ensuring you and your loved ones have the very best health care and enjoy an active and stimulating activity programme crafted with their individual interests in mind.

As someone with a parent in care, I understand that it can be a daunting journey. Please feel free to reach out to me via a call or email at any time with any questions you may have.

Facility Reviews

Thank you for the wonderful care and love you all gave Elaine. Living so far away it was a blessing to know she was so well looked after. It was her ‘home’.
