Administration Centre
The Hibiscus Coast Hospice provides a home based palliative care service in this area from Puhoi in the North to Dairy Flat in the South as well as the Orewa, Red Beach and Whangaparaoa communities. This means that people can be cared for in their own homes in most cases if that is their wish.
The Hibiscus Coast Hospice was formed in 1985 by a group of concerned residents on the Coast. In 1992 it was registered as a Charitable Trust. The Hospice is governed by a Board of Trustees. It is managed on behalf of all residents on the Hibiscus Coast. The management team consists of a Manager, Medical Director, Nursing Administrator, Coordinator of Volunteers, Project Coordinator and a Grief Suport Coordinator. We have specially trained palliative care nurses and a large number of volunteers. Click here to see our dedicated team members.
The Hospice is owned by the community and run by the community. It is heavily reliant on support from the community.
We are a member of Hospice New Zealand and follow prescribed standards of care and the International Hospice Philosophy.
