Radius Matua in Tauranga is a modern rest home, hospital and dementia care facility providing ‘round the clock care for those who can no longer manage safely on their own. We know that when your loved one can no longer live completely independently, choosing an aged care home can be one of the most emotional, and important decisions you need to make. That’s why we put the diverse care needs of our residents first, and our trained staff provide individualised care that allows all of our residents to live with dignity and as independently as possible.

Most rooms in our residential care facility have individual attached ensuites. The majority of the rooms are single, with a few double rooms for married couples, or those who prefer a bit of company. Our residents’ rooms have heating units and are equipped with a telephone outlet, television points and call button. The rest home’s lounges flow onto central courtyards, bringing the outdoors “in”, and the hospital’s interior is designed to create a warm and comfortable ambience.

For many of our residents, the hardest part about adjusting to rest home care is leaving behind their beloved pets. Here at Matua, we foster an animal-friendly culture. When walking through the main reception, be prepared for an encounter with the ruler of Radius Matua—Jess, our friendly office dog. We have a large fish tank, an aviary full of different birds, a number of cats, and even three turtles in their special pond enclosure. Alongside the “Matua Menagerie” that regularly visit our facility, our residents also enjoy regular visits from various canine friends, courtesy of the local SPCA.

Here at Radius Matua we love an excuse to celebrate, and our New Year’s Eve party is a highlight of every year. Our seven-day activity rosters encourage residents to join in and keep active every day, and our park-like gardens and sheltered courtyards provide a tranquil place for residents, family and friends to relax and spend time. Radius Matua offers a social and stimulating atmosphere with great food, a wide range of activities, and caring, compassionate staff.

Klára Luxford Rulíšek

Ahoj everyone! Despite the nautical greeting, there’s not a drop of sailor’s blood in me, that’s just how we say hello in the Czech Republic, where I’m originally from. I moved to New Zealand in 2011 with my Kiwi husband after spending 10 years in London, UK. Later that year, I joined the Matua site as a healthcare assistant. When an opportunity arose, I transitioned to the activities team and eventually became team leader in 2016.

I’m a qualified diversional therapist with a background in teaching and tour guiding. In 2022, I stepped into the role of Recreational and Quality Coordinator, drawing on my diverse skill set. In July 2025, I was seconded to the
Care Home Manager role - and here I am! I love connecting with people and am always up for a good conversation. Outside of work, I run quizzes, teach Czech, and actively contribute to the Czech and Slovak Club Tauranga. I also enjoy photography with my husband and volunteer at the 16th Avenue Theatre.
