Hospice Kaipara serves the Kaipara District which has a population of about 26,000 people. It covers from the Waipoua Forest to Paparoa, the Dargaville township and its surrounds which includes from Pouto to Tangiteroia.
As a multidisciplinary team made up of nurse manager, district nurses, social workers, GPs, Northland Health inpatient services and Te Ha O Te Oranga, Kaipara Palliative Care works closely as a team to ensure care co-ordination and services are delivered in a timely co-ordinated way for the benefit of the patient and their families.
It has two dedicated beds within the hospital available for respite care and end-of-life care as appropriate.
It is fortunate to have a large pool of trained volunteers available to help patients and their families at home with the added support of day/night nursing as required.
