Kowhainui Home

The atmosphere at Enliven Central's Kowhainui Home is bright and easy-going; the people are caring and welcoming. Situated on lovely grounds in the prestigious suburb of Otamatea, this modern, purpose-built facility is a well-known local icon. At Kowhainui Home we embrace Enliven's philosophy of care which is based around the internationally recognised Eden Alternative. We are one of just a handful of rest homes in New Zealand to have full Eden Alternative certification; that means we take every opportunity to make sure elders have companionship, spontaneity, fun, meaningful activity and a sense of purpose in their lives.
